[PATCH 5.4 018/434] neighbour: remove neigh_cleanup() method
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Dec 29 2019 - 13:12:01 EST
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit f394722fb0d0f701119368959d7cd0ecbc46363a ]
neigh_cleanup() has not been used for seven years, and was a wrong design.
Messing with shared pointer in bond_neigh_init() without proper
memory barriers would at least trigger syzbot complains eventually.
It is time to remove this stuff.
Fixes: b63b70d87741 ("IPoIB: Use a private hash table for path lookup in xmit path")
