addrconf_ifdown() removes elements from the idev->addr_list without
holding the idev->lock.
If this happens while the loop in __ipv6_dev_get_saddr() is handling the
same element, that function ends up in an infinite loop:
NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 23s! [test:1719]

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.
