[ Upstream commit d6b83f1e3707c4d60acfa58afd3515e17e5d5384 ] If failed to allocate "tags" or could not find the final upper device from start_dev's upper list in bond_verify_device_path(), only the loopback detection of the current upper device should be affected, and the system is no need to be panic. So return -ENOMEM in alb_upper_dev_walk to stop walking, print some warn information when failed to allocate memory for vlan tags in bond_verify_device_path. I also think that the following function calls netdev_walk_all_upper_dev_rcu ---->>>alb_upper_dev_walk ---------->>>bond_verify_device_path From this way, "end device" can eventually be obtained from "start device" in bond_verify_device_path, IS_ERR(tags) could be instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL(tags) in alb_upper_dev_walk.

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.
