br: fix use of ->rx_handler_data in code executed on non-rx_handler path
commit 859828c0ea476b42f3a93d69d117aaba90994b6f upstream. br_stp_rcv() is reached by non-rx_handler path. That means there is no guarantee that dev is bridge port and therefore simple NULL check of ->rx_handler_data is not enough. There is need to check if dev is really bridge port and since only rcu read lock is held here, do it by checking ->rx_handler pointer. Note that synchronize_net() in netdev_rx_handler_unregister() ensures this approach as valid. Introduced originally by: commit f350a0a87374418635689471606454abc7beaa3a "bridge: use rx_handler_data pointer to store net_bridge_port pointer" Fixed but not in the best way by: commit b5ed54e94d324f17c97852296d61a143f01b227a "bridge: fix RCU races with bridge port" Reintroduced by: commit 716ec052d2280d511e10e90ad54a86f5b5d4dcc2 "bridge: fix NULL pointer deref of br_port_get_rcu" Please apply to stable trees as well.
