With TC shared block changes we can't depend on correct netdev pointer being available in cls_bpf. Move the device validation to the driver. Core will only make sure that offloaded programs are always attached in the driver (or in HW by the driver). We trust that drivers which implement offload callbacks will perform necessary checks. Moving the checks to the driver is generally a useful thing, in practice the check should be against a switchdev instance, not a netdev, given that most ASICs will probably allow using the same program on many ports.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
