Tariq and Ran reported a regression caused by net-next commit 2638eb8b50cf ("net: ipv4: provide __rcu annotation for ifa_list"). This happens when net.ipv4.conf.$dev.promote_secondaries sysctl is enabled -- we can arrange for ifa->next to point at ifa, so next process that tries to walk the list loops forever. Fix this and extend rtnetlink.sh with a small test case for this.Series applied, thanks Florian.
Thanks Florian! Ran, please test and update. Tariq
