openvswitch: Fix net exit.
Open vSwitch allows moving internal vport to different namespace while still connected to the bridge. But when namespace deleted OVS does not detach these vports, that results in dangling pointer to netdevice which causes kernel panic as follows. This issue is fixed by detaching all ovs ports from the deleted namespace at net-exit. BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 IP: [<ffffffffa0aadaa5>] ovs_vport_locate+0x35/0x80 [openvswitch] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Call Trace: [<ffffffffa0aa6391>] lookup_vport+0x21/0xd0 [openvswitch] [<ffffffffa0aa65f9>] ovs_vport_cmd_get+0x59/0xf0 [openvswitch] [<ffffffff8167e07c>] genl_family_rcv_msg+0x1bc/0x3e0 [<ffffffff8167e319>] genl_rcv_msg+0x79/0xc0 [<ffffffff8167d919>] netlink_rcv_skb+0xb9/0xe0 [<ffffffff8167deac>] genl_rcv+0x2c/0x40 [<ffffffff8167cffd>] netlink_unicast+0x12d/0x1c0 [<ffffffff8167d3da>] netlink_sendmsg+0x34a/0x6b0 [<ffffffff8162e140>] sock_sendmsg+0xa0/0xe0 [<ffffffff8162e5e8>] ___sys_sendmsg+0x408/0x420 [<ffffffff8162f541>] __sys_sendmsg+0x51/0x90 [<ffffffff8162f592>] SyS_sendmsg+0x12/0x20 [<ffffffff81764ee9>] system_call_fastpath+0x12/0x17 Reported-by: Assaf Muller <amuller@redhat.com> Fixes: 46df7b81454("openvswitch: Add support for network namespaces.")
