bridge: Fix incorrect re-injection of LLDP packets
[ Upstream commit baedbe55884c003819f5c8c063ec3d2569414296 ] Commit 8626c56c8279 ("bridge: fix potential use-after-free when hook returns QUEUE or STOLEN verdict") caused LLDP packets arriving through a bridge port to be re-injected to the Rx path with skb->dev set to the bridge device, but this breaks the lldpad daemon. The lldpad daemon opens a packet socket with protocol set to ETH_P_LLDP for any valid device on the system, which doesn't not include soft devices such as bridge and VLAN. Since packet sockets (ptype_base) are processed in the Rx path after the Rx handler, LLDP packets with skb->dev set to the bridge device never reach the lldpad daemon. Fix this by making the bridge's Rx handler re-inject LLDP packets with RX_HANDLER_PASS, which effectively restores the behaviour prior to the mentioned commit. This means netfilter will never receive LLDP packets coming through a bridge port, as I don't see a way in which we can have okfn() consume the packet without breaking existing behaviour. I've already carried out a similar fix for STP packets in commit 56fae404fb2c ("bridge: Fix incorrect re-injection of STP packets").
