Previously the identifier used for indirect block callback registry
and for block rule cb registry (when done via indirect blocks) was the
pointer to the tunnel netdev we were interested in receiving updates on.
This worked fine if a single PF existed that registered one callback for
the tunnel netdev of interest. However, if multiple PFs are in place then
the 2nd PF tries to register with the same tunnel netdev identifier. This
leads to EEXIST errors and/or incorrect cb deletions.
Prevent this conflict by using the rpriv pointer as the identifier for
netdev indirect block cb registry, allowing each PF to register a unique
callback per tunnel netdev. For block cb registry, the same PF may
register multiple cbs to the same block if using TC shared blocks.
Instead of the rpriv, use the pointer to the allocated indr_priv data as
the identifier here. This means that there can be a unique block callback
for each PF/tunnel netdev combo.

for eswitch uplink reprs")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
