[ Upstream commit f5c3eb4b7251baba5cd72c9e93920e710ac8194a ]

The original idea of the delay_time check was to not apply multicast
snooping too early when an MLD querier appears. And to instead wait at
least for MLD reports to arrive before switching from flooding to group
based, MLD snooped forwarding, to avoid temporary packet loss.

However in a batman-adv mesh network it was noticed that after 248 days of
uptime 32bit MIPS based devices would start to signal that they had
stopped applying multicast snooping due to missing queriers - even though
they were the elected querier and still sending MLD queries themselves.

While time_is_before_jiffies() generally is safe against jiffies
wrap-arounds, like the code comments in jiffies.h explain, it won't
be able to track a difference larger than ULONG_MAX/2. With a 32bit
large jiffies and one jiffies tick every 10ms (CONFIG_HZ=100) on these MIPS
devices running OpenWrt this would result in a difference larger than
ULONG_MAX/2 after 248 (= 2^32/100/60/60/24/2) days and
time_is_before_jiffies() would then start to return false instead of
true. Leading to multicast snooping not being applied to multicast
packets anymore.

Fix this issue by using a proper timer_list object which won't have this
ULONG_MAX/2 difference limitation.

<title>bridge: cfm: fix enum typo in br_cc_ccm_tx_parse</title>

[ Upstream commit c2b2ee36250d967c21890cb801e24af4b6a9eaa5 ]

It appears that there is a typo in the code where the nlattr array is
being parsed with policy br_cfm_cc_ccm_tx_policy, but the instance is
being accessed via IFLA_BRIDGE_CFM_CC_RDI_INSTANCE, which is associated
with the policy br_cfm_cc_rdi_policy.

This problem was introduced by commit 2be665c3940d ("bridge: cfm: Netlink
SET configuration Interface.").

Though it seems like a harmless typo since these two enum owns the exact
same value (1 here), it is quite misleading hence fix it by using the
correct enum IFLA_BRIDGE_CFM_CC_CCM_TX_INSTANCE here.

<title>netfilter: bridge: replace physindev with physinif in nf_bridge_info</title>

[ Upstream commit 9874808878d9eed407e3977fd11fee49de1e1d86 ]

An skb can be added to a neigh-&gt;arp_queue while waiting for an arp
reply. Where original skb's skb-&gt;dev can be different to neigh's
neigh-&gt;dev. For instance in case of bridging dnated skb from one veth to
another, the skb would be added to a neigh-&gt;arp_queue of the bridge.

As skb-&gt;dev can be reset back to nf_bridge-&gt;physindev and used, and as
there is no explicit mechanism that prevents this physindev from been
freed under us (for instance neigh_flush_dev doesn't cleanup skbs from
different device's neigh queue) we can crash on e.g. this stack:

arp_process
  neigh_update
    skb = __skb_dequeue(&amp;neigh-&gt;arp_queue)
      neigh_resolve_output(..., skb)
        ...
          br_nf_dev_xmit
            br_nf_pre_routing_finish_bridge_slow
              skb-&gt;dev = nf_bridge-&gt;physindev
              br_handle_frame_finish

Let's use plain ifindex instead of net_device link. To peek into the
original net_device we will use dev_get_by_index_rcu(). Thus either we
get device and are safe to use it or we don't get it and drop skb.

entry, allocating the skb according to the entry's size and then filling
in the response. The operation is performed under the bridge multicast
lock to ensure that the entry does not change between the time the reply
size is determined and when the reply is filled in.

Currently, netlink notifications are sent for individual port group
entries and not for the entire MDB entry itself.

Subsequent patches are going to add MDB get support which will require
the bridge driver to reply with an entire MDB entry.

Therefore, as a preparation, factor out an helper to calculate the size
of an individual port group entry. When determining the size of the
reply this helper will be invoked for each port group entry in the MDB
entry.

No functional changes intended.
