Ilya Maximets 83861c48ba openvswitch: vport: fix race between tunnel creation and linking
When a tunnel vport is created it first creates the tunnel device, e.g.,
with geneve_dev_create_fb(), then it calls ovs_netdev_link() to take a
reference and link it to the device that represents openvswitch datapath.

The creation of the device is happening under RTNL, but then RTNL is
released and re-acquired to find the device by name.  It is technically
possible for the tunnel device to be re-named or deleted within that
window while RTNL is not held, and some other device created in its
place.  This will cause a non-tunnel device to be referenced in the
vport and tunnel-specific functions used on it, e.g. vxlan_get_options()
that directly casts the private netdev data into a struct vxlan_dev
causing an invalid memory access:

 BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in vxlan_get_options+0x323/0x3a0
  vxlan_get_options+0x323/0x3a0
  ovs_vport_cmd_new+0x6e3/0xd30

Fix that by taking a reference to the just created device before
releasing RTNL.  This ensures that the device in the vport is always
the one that was just created.  The search by name is only needed
for a standard vport-netdev that links pre-existing devices, so that
functionality and device type checks are moved to netdev_create().

It is also awkward that ovs_netdev_link() takes ownership of the vport
and destroys it on failure.  It doesn't know the type of the port it is
dealing with, so we need to pass down the indicator that it's a tunnel,
so the link can be properly deleted on failure.

It's possible to refactor the logic to make the ovs_netdev_link() do
only the linking part and let the callers perform a proper destruction,
but it will be much more code for each legacy tunnel port type, so it
is not worth it for the bug fix.
