This code is no longer like that in current tree.
Check commit 4a0b5ec12f0ffc3024616e6dc62cf8a04c54edcd
("bridge: remove a redundant synchronize_net()")

I claim adding NULL tests is not needed in the fast path, it was clearly
stated in the changelog.

I would change the dismantle path to make sure br_get_port_rcu() does
not return NULL in the fast path, and remove the test on FF_BRIDGE_PORT

Try something like that :
