[PATCH 3.14 17/96] team: dont traverse port list using rcu in team_set_mac_address

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 9215f437b85da339a7dfe3db6e288637406f88b2 ]

Currently the list is traversed using rcu variant. That is not correct
since dev_set_mac_address can be called which eventually calls
rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb and there, skb allocation can sleep. So fix this
by remove the rcu usage here.

Fixes: 3d249d4ca7 "net: introduce ethernet teaming device"
