bridge: Fix RCU race in br_multicast_stop
Thanks to Paul McKenny for pointing out that it is incorrect to use synchronize_rcu_bh to ensure that pending callbacks have completed. Instead we should use rcu_barrier_bh. Reported-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
