After promisc mode management was introduced a bridge device could do
dev_set_promiscuity from its ndo_change_rx_flags() callback which in
turn can be called after the bridge's addr_list_lock has been taken
(e.g. by dev_uc_add). This causes a false positive lockdep splat because
the port interfaces' addr_list_lock is taken when br_manage_promisc()
runs after the bridge's addr list lock was already taken.
To remove the false positive introduce a custom bridge addr_list_lock
class and set it on bridge init.
A simple way to reproduce this is with the following:
$ brctl addbr br0
$ ip l add l br0 br0.100 type vlan id 100
$ ip l set br0 up
$ ip l set br0.100 up
$ echo 1 &gt; /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/vlan_filtering
$ brctl addif br0 eth0
Splat:

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next, they are:

1) Release nf_tables objects on netns destructions via
   nft_release_afinfo().

2) Destroy basechain and rules on netdevice removal in the new netdev
   family.

3) Get rid of defensive check against removal of inactive objects in
   nf_tables.

4) Pass down netns pointer to our existing nfnetlink callbacks, as well
   as commit() and abort() nfnetlink callbacks.

5) Allow to invert limit expression in nf_tables, so we can throttle
   overlimit traffic.

6) Add packet duplication for the netdev family.

7) Add forward expression for the netdev family.

8) Define pr_fmt() in conntrack helpers.

9) Don't leave nfqueue configuration on inconsistent state in case of
   errors, from Ken-ichirou MATSUZAWA, follow up patches are also from
   him.

10) Skip queue option handling after unbind.

11) Return error on unknown both in nfqueue and nflog command.

12) Autoload ctnetlink when NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK is set.

13) Add new NFTA_SET_USERDATA attribute to store user data in sets,
    from Carlos Falgueras.

14) Add support for 64 bit byteordering changes nf_tables, from Florian
    Westphal.

15) Add conntrack byte/packet counter matching support to nf_tables,
    also from Florian.

<title>bridge: Only call /sbin/bridge-stp for the initial network namespace</title>

[I stole this patch from Eric Biederman. He wrote:]

&gt; There is no defined mechanism to pass network namespace information
&gt; into /sbin/bridge-stp therefore don't even try to invoke it except
&gt; for bridge devices in the initial network namespace.
&gt;
&gt; It is possible for unprivileged users to cause /sbin/bridge-stp to be
&gt; invoked for any network device name which if /sbin/bridge-stp does not
&gt; guard against unreasonable arguments or being invoked twice on the
&gt; same network device could cause problems.

[Hannes: changed patch using netns_eq]

<title>netfilter: nf_tables: release objects on netns destruction</title>

We have to release the existing objects on netns removal otherwise we
leak them. Chains are unregistered in first place to make sure no
packets are walking on our rules and sets anymore.

The object release happens by when we unregister the family via
nft_release_afinfo() which is called from nft_unregister_afinfo() from
the corresponding __net_exit path in every family.
