[PATCH] net: caif: Don't act on notification for non-caif devices

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Tue Jan 24 2012 - 00:31:40 EST


Currently we assume every notification happens within a network namespace
in which CAIF was already initialized. This is not true when we're copying
the namespace and the notifier is being called before the initialization
code runs.

Since the list of CAIF devices is stored in the net generic struct in each
net namespace, which is not initialized at that point, we see the following
BUG():

Instead, we'll first check if the device in the notification is a CAIF device:
- If it is - the net generic struct in that namespace must have been already
initialized.
- If not - just ignore it as we don't care about other devices.
