That is correct, but I don't think the above would work. There are pointers to
ports in MRP and if they get deleted those ptrs are no longer valid. Even in
br_mrp_del() there's code like:
/* Reset the ports */
p = rcu_dereference_protected(mrp->p_port, lockdep_is_held(&mrp->lock));

but p could've been deleted before so now br_mrp_del() will deref an invalid ptr.

By the way I just noticed another bug in br_mrp_del():
+ synchronize_rcu();
+
+ list_del_rcu(&mrp->list);

this is the wrong way around, you should delete it from the list so it can't be found
by any new readers and then do synchronize_rcu() before freeing it. Also why do you
use the devm_ calls ? You're allocating/freeing the memory so you don't need the managed
alloc, just cleanup properly on port/bridge del.
