Nikolay Aleksandrov bb18ef8e7e net: bridge: mcast: record querier port device ifindex instead of pointer
Currently when a querier port is detected its net_bridge_port pointer is
recorded, but it's used only for comparisons so it's fine to have stale
pointer, in order to dereference and use the port pointer a proper
accounting of its usage must be implemented adding unnecessary
complexity. To solve the problem we can just store the netdevice ifindex
instead of the port pointer and retrieve the bridge port. It is a best
effort and the device needs to be validated that is still part of that
bridge before use, but that is small price to pay for avoiding querier
reference counting for each port/vlan.

README

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.

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.
