    net: bridge: fix early call to br_stp_change_bridge_id and plug newlink leaks · dd1e454c

    [ Upstream commit 84aeb437 ]
    
    The early call to br_stp_change_bridge_id in bridge's newlink can cause
    a memory leak if an error occurs during the newlink because the fdb
    entries are not cleaned up if a different lladdr was specified, also
    another minor issue is that it generates fdb notifications with
    ifindex = 0. Another unrelated memory leak is the bridge sysfs entries
    which get added on NETDEV_REGISTER event, but are not cleaned up in the
    newlink error path. To remove this special case the call to
    br_stp_change_bridge_id is done after netdev register and we cleanup the
    bridge on changelink error via br_dev_delete to plug all leaks.
    
    This patch makes netlink bridge destruction on newlink error the same as
    dellink and ioctl del which is necessary since at that point we have a
    fully initialized bridge device.
    
    To reproduce the issue:
    $ ip l add br0 address 00:11:22:33:44:55 type bridge group_fwd_mask 1
