From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <niko...@cumulusnetworks.com> commit c62987bbd8a1 ("bridge: push bridge setting ageing_time down to switchdev") introduced a timer race condition because the gc_timer can get rearmed after it's supposedly stopped and flushed in br_dev_delete() leading to a use of freed memory. So take rtnl to sync with bridge destruction when setting ageing_timer. Here's the trace reproduced with these two commands running in parallel: while :; do echo 10000 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/ageing_timer; done; while :; do brctl addbr br0; ip l set br0 up; ip l set br0 down; brctl delbr br0; done;
