team: protect features update by RCU to avoid deadlock
commit f0947d0d21b219e03940b9be6628a43445c0de7a upstream. Function __team_compute_features() is protected by team->lock mutex when it is called from team_compute_features() used when features of an underlying device is changed. This causes a deadlock when NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE notifier for underlying device is fired due to change propagated from team driver (e.g. MTU change). It's because callbacks like team_change_mtu() or team_vlan_rx_{add,del}_vid() protect their port list traversal by team->lock mutex. Example (r8169 case where this driver disables TSO for certain MTU values): ... [ 6391.348202] __mutex_lock.isra.6+0x2d0/0x4a0 [ 6391.358602] team_device_event+0x9d/0x160 [team] [ 6391.363756] notifier_call_chain+0x47/0x70 [ 6391.368329] netdev_update_features+0x56/0x60 [ 6391.373207] rtl8169_change_mtu+0x14/0x50 [r8169] [ 6391.378457] dev_set_mtu_ext+0xe1/0x1d0 [ 6391.387022] dev_set_mtu+0x52/0x90 [ 6391.390820] team_change_mtu+0x64/0xf0 [team] [ 6391.395683] dev_set_mtu_ext+0xe1/0x1d0 [ 6391.399963] do_setlink+0x231/0xf50 ... In fact team_compute_features() called from team_device_event() does not need to be protected by team->lock mutex and rcu_read_lock() is sufficient there for port list traversal.
