bonding: fix error handling if slave is busy (v2)
commit f7d9821a6a9c83450ac35e76d3709e32fd38b76f upstream. If slave device already has a receive handler registered, then the error unwind of bonding device enslave function is broken. The following will leave a pointer to freed memory in the slave device list, causing a later kernel panic. # modprobe dummy # ip li add dummy0-1 link dummy0 type macvlan # modprobe bonding # echo +dummy0 >/sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves The fix is to detach the slave (which removes it from the list) in the unwind path.
