valis reported that a race condition still happens after my prior patch.
macvlan_common_newlink() might have made @dev visible before
detecting an error, and its caller will directly call free_netdev(dev).
We must respect an RCU period, either in macvlan or the core networking
stack.
After adding a temporary mdelay(1000) in macvlan_forward_source_one()
to open the race window, valis repro was:
ip link add p1 type veth peer p2
ip link set address 00:00:00:00:00:20 dev p1
ip link set up dev p1
ip link set up dev p2
ip link add mv0 link p2 type macvlan mode source
(ip link add invalid% link p2 type macvlan mode source macaddr add
00:00:00:00:00:20 &) ; sleep 0.5 ; ping -c1 -I p1 1.2.3.4
PING 1.2.3.4 (1.2.3.4): 56 data bytes
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument
