Stefano Brivio 9f7aeee654 vxlan: Fix GRO cells race condition between receive and link delete
[ Upstream commit ad6c9986bc ]

If we receive a packet while deleting a VXLAN device, there's a chance
vxlan_rcv() is called at the same time as vxlan_dellink(). This is fine,
except that vxlan_dellink() should never ever touch stuff that's still in
use, such as the GRO cells list.

Otherwise, vxlan_rcv() crashes while queueing packets via
gro_cells_receive().

Move the gro_cells_destroy() to vxlan_uninit(), which runs after the RCU
grace period is elapsed and nothing needs the gro_cells anymore.

This is now done in the same way as commit 8e816df879 ("geneve: Use GRO
cells infrastructure.") originally implemented for GENEVE.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
