[PATCH net v4] team: reject CAN, IEEE 802.15.4 and 6LoWPAN devices in team_port_add

[Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@hartkopp.net>]

From: Jiale Yao <yaojiale02@163.com>

When the first port has a non-Ethernet type, team_setup_by_port()
copies port_dev->type to the team device while netdev_priv() of the
team device still holds a struct team. Several L2 stacks identify their
devices by dev->type alone and then access type specific data that the
team driver never sets up:

- CAN protocols rely on the CAN mid-layer private data (ml_priv)
- IEEE 802.15.4 code dereferences ieee802154_ptr and the mlme ops in
  ml_priv
- the 6LoWPAN netdev notifier writes through lowpan_dev(dev) on
  NETDEV_DOWN and reads it on NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_CHANGE

Enslaving such a device (e.g. vxcan, wpan0, lowpan0) therefore leads to
NULL pointer dereferences or to writes into struct team.

Reject ARPHRD_CAN, ARPHRD_IEEE802154, ARPHRD_IEEE802154_MONITOR and
ARPHRD_6LOWPAN devices in team_port_add(). The bonding driver has
rejected CAN devices since commit 8ba68464e478 ("bonding: refuse to
enslave CAN devices").

v4: [Hartkopp] also reject ARPHRD_6LOWPAN as reported by Sashiko AI
    review, reworded commit message (bonding only rejects CAN)
v3: [Hartkopp] fixed indention and compilation as reported by kernel test robot
