[PATCH net-next] net: dsa: Fix use after free in dsa_switch_remove()

From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com>
Date: 2019-11-03 03:14:01

The order in which the ports are deleted from the list and freed and the
call to dsa_tree_remove_switch() is done is reversed, which leads to an
use after free condition. Reverse the two: first tear down the ports and
switch from the fabric, then free the ports associated with that switch
fabric.
