[PATCH net 0/2] bridge/vxlan: fix reading neigh ha without synchronization

[Nikolay Aleksandrov <razor@blackwall.org>]

Hi,
Neigh ha address must be read using the seqlock to get a stable snapshot.
Both the bridge and vxlan read it directly and can see partial updates.
I reproduced both issues with running neigh updates and exercising these
paths in parallel and saw partial addresses, e.g. updating between
neigh A: 02:00:00:00:00:00 neigh B: fe:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff was able to observe
02:00:ff:ff:ff:ff and fe:ff:00:00:00:00 in packets. Noticed this initially
in the bridge, then checked vxlan and its arp/neigh_reduce functions have
the same bug, route_shortcircuit is doing the right thing already.

Cheers,
 Nik
