      It occurs because we are able to change the slave configuarion of a bond while
      the bond interface is down.  The bonding driver initializes some data structures
      only after its ndo_open routine is called.  Among them is the initalization of
      the alb tx and rx hash locks.  So if we add or remove a slave without first
      opening the bond master device, we run the risk of trying to lock/unlock a
      spinlock that has garbage for data in it, which results in our above softlock.
      
      Note that sometimes this works, because in many cases an unlocked spinlock has
      the raw_lock parameter initialized to zero (meaning that the kzalloc of the
      net_device private data is equivalent to calling spin_lock_init), but thats not
      true in all cases, and we aren't guaranteed that condition, so we need to pass
      the relevant spinlocks through the spin_lock_init function.
      
      Fix it by moving the spin_lock_init calls for the tx and rx hashtable locks to
      the ndo_init path, so they are ready for use by the bond_store_slaves path.
      
      Change notes:
      v2) Based on conversation with Jay and Nicolas it seems that the ability to
      enslave devices while the bond master is down should be safe to do.  As such
      this is an outlier bug, and so instead we'll just initalize the errant spinlocks
      in the init path rather than the open path, solving the problem.  We'll also
      remove the warnings about the bond being down during enslave operations, since
      it should be safe
      
      v3) Fix spelling error

      net: hold rtnl again in dump callbacks · 2907c35f
      Eric Dumazet authored
      Commit e67f88dd (dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks)
      missed fact that rtnl_fill_ifinfo() must be called with rtnl held.
      
      Because of possible deadlocks between two mutexes (cb_mutex and rtnl),
      its not easy to solve this problem, so revert this part of the patch.
      
      It also forgot one rcu_read_unlock() in FIB dump_rules()
      
      Add one ASSERT_RTNL() in rtnl_fill_ifinfo() to remind us the rule.
