David S. Miller d36ceaef8f Merge branch 'Fix-infinite-loop-in-bridge-and-vxlan-modules'
Ido Schimmel says:

====================
Fix infinite loop in bridge and vxlan modules

When suppressing invalid IPv6 Neighbour Solicitation messages, it is
possible for the bridge and vxlan modules to get stuck in an infinite
loop. See the individual changelogs for detailed explanation of the
problem and solution.

The bug was originally reported against the bridge module, but after
auditing the code base I found that the buggy code was copied from the
vxlan module. This patch set fixes both modules. Could not find more
instances of the problem.

Please consider both patches for stable releases.
====================

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.
