Eric Dumazet fcfb894d59 net: bridge: fix net device refcount tracking issue in error path
I left one dev_put() in br_add_if() error path and sure enough
syzbot found its way.

As the tracker is allocated in new_nbp(), we must make sure
to properly free it.

We have to call dev_put_track(dev, &p->dev_tracker) before
@p object is freed, of course. This is not an issue because
br_add_if() owns a reference on @dev.

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.
