From be4f154d5ef0ca147ab6bcd38857a774133f5450 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2013 17:12:05 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] bridge: Clamp forward_delay when enabling STP At some point limits were added to forward_delay. However, the limits are only enforced when STP is enabled. This created a scenario where you could have a value outside the allowed range while STP is disabled, which then stuck around even after STP is enabled. This patch fixes this by clamping the value when we enable STP. I had to move the locking around a bit to ensure that there is no window where someone could insert a value outside the range while we're in the middle of enabling STP.
