vxlan: fix unexpected failure of vxlan_changelink()
After commit 0ce1822c ("vxlan: add adjacent link to limit depth level"), vxlan_changelink() could fail because of netdev_adjacent_change_prepare(). netdev_adjacent_change_prepare() returns -EEXIST when old lower device and new lower device are same. (old lower device is "dst->remote_dev" and new lower device is "lowerdev") So, before calling it, lowerdev should be NULL if these devices are same. Test command1: ip link add dummy0 type dummy ip link add vxlan0 type vxlan dev dummy0 dstport 4789 vni 1 ip link set vxlan0 type vxlan ttl 5 RTNETLINK answers: File exists Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Fixes: 0ce1822c ("vxlan: add adjacent link to limit depth level") Signed-off-by: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
