[PATCH 4.2 08/54] net: dsa: fix preparation of a port STP update

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Oct 23 2015 - 14:12:57 EST


4.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vivien Didelot <vivien.didelot@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 57a47532c4312159935c98b7f1cf0e62296b9171 ]

Because of the default 0 value of ret in dsa_slave_port_attr_set, a
driver may return -EOPNOTSUPP from the commit phase of a STP state,
which triggers a WARN() from switchdev.

This happened on a 6185 switch which does not support hardware bridging.

Fixes: 3563606258cf ("switchdev: convert STP update to switchdev attr set")
