Subject: [PATCH] bridge: Only call /sbin/bridge-stp for the initial network
 namespace

[ Upstream commit ff62198553e43cdffa9d539f6165d3e83f8a42bc ]

[I stole this patch from Eric Biederman. He wrote:]

> There is no defined mechanism to pass network namespace information
> into /sbin/bridge-stp therefore don't even try to invoke it except
> for bridge devices in the initial network namespace.
>
> It is possible for unprivileged users to cause /sbin/bridge-stp to be
> invoked for any network device name which if /sbin/bridge-stp does not
> guard against unreasonable arguments or being invoked twice on the
> same network device could cause problems.
