Following your patch the code in multicast.c will become:

172         do {
173                 upper = upper;
			if (dev->priv_flags & IFF_BRIDGE_PORT) {
				rcu_read_unlock();
				dev_hold(dev);
				return dev;
			} else
				dev = NULL;
174         } while (upper && !(upper->priv_flags & IFF_EBRIDGE));

am I wrong or this is going to break the while? I think there is a
missing '}'.


What about a simplified version like this:

 #define netdev_master_upper_dev_get_rcu(dev) \
-	NULL; \
-	if (dev->priv_flags & IFF_BRIDGE_PORT) { \
+	({if (dev->priv_flags & IFF_BRIDGE_PORT) { \
 		rcu_read_unlock(); \
 		dev_hold(dev); \
 		return dev; \
-	}
+	}\
+	NULL;})
