    net: team: Unsync device addresses on ndo_stop · bd602342
    Benjamin Poirier authored
    Netdev drivers are expected to call dev_{uc,mc}_sync() in their
    ndo_set_rx_mode method and dev_{uc,mc}_unsync() in their ndo_stop method.
    This is mentioned in the kerneldoc for those dev_* functions.
    
    The team driver calls dev_{uc,mc}_unsync() during ndo_uninit instead of
    ndo_stop. This is ineffective because address lists (dev->{uc,mc}) have
    already been emptied in unregister_netdevice_many() before ndo_uninit is
    called. This mistake can result in addresses being leftover on former team
    ports after a team device has been deleted; see test_LAG_cleanup() in the
    last patch in this series.
    
    Add unsync calls at their expected location, team_close().
    
    v3:
    * When adding or deleting a port, only sync/unsync addresses if the team
      device is up. In other cases, it is taken care of at the right time by
      ndo_open/ndo_set_rx_mode/ndo_stop.
