commit 0d7a7b2014b1a499a0fe24c9f3063d7856b5aaaf upstream. My previous commits added a dev_hold() in tunnels ndo_init(), but forgot to remove it from special functions setting up fallback tunnels. Fallback tunnels do call their respective ndo_init() This leads to various reports like : unregister_netdevice: waiting for ip6gre0 to become free. Usage count = 2 Fixes: 48bb5697269a ("ip6_tunnel: sit: proper dev_{hold|put} in ndo_[un]init methods") Fixes: 6289a98f0817 ("sit: proper dev_{hold|put} in ndo_[un]init methods") Fixes: 40cb881b5aaa ("ip6_vti: proper dev_{hold|put} in ndo_[un]init methods") Fixes: 7f700334be9a ("ip6_gre: proper dev_{hold|put} in ndo_[un]init methods") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reported-by: syzbot <syzkaller@googlegroups.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
