The one I know is nb_netdevice netdevice notifier of roce_gid_mgmt. It will trigger vlan's real_dev UAF. It is a syzbot problem. See details: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=e4df4e1389e28972e955

Yes, I am sorry for that. I will keep improving the quality of my code.
The related problems have solved by the series patches of commit faab39f63c1f ("net: allow out-of-order netdev unregistration"). So I think it is the right time to fix other modules' potential problem.

The potential problem exists since macvlan and ipvlan were added.

For macvlan and ipvlan, there are not repros now. I think it is necessary to give a right logic to cope with the constant evolution of the kernel.
