After refcnt reaches zero, vlan_vid_del() could free
dev->vlan_info via RCU:
RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->vlan_info, NULL);
call_rcu(&vlan_info->rcu, vlan_info_rcu_free);
However, the pointer 'grp' still points to that memory
since it is set before vlan_vid_del():
vlan_info = rtnl_dereference(dev->vlan_info);
if (!vlan_info)
goto out;
grp = &vlan_info->grp;
Depends on when that RCU callback is scheduled, we could
trigger a use-after-free in vlan_group_for_each_dev()
right following this vlan_vid_del().
Fix it by moving vlan_vid_del() before setting grp. This
is also symmetric to the vlan_vid_add() we call in
vlan_device_event().

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.
