[PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 04/23] net: Make accesses to ->br_port safe for sparse RCU

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Wed May 12 2010 - 17:38:09 EST


The new versions of the rcu_dereference() APIs requires that any pointers
passed to one of these APIs be fully defined. The ->br_port field
in struct net_device points to a struct net_bridge_port, which is an
incomplete type. This commit therefore changes ->br_port to be a void*,
and introduces a br_port() helper function to convert the type to struct
net_bridge_port, and applies this new helper function where required.
