devlink: disallow reload operation during device cleanup
There is a race between driver code that does setup/cleanup of device and devlink reload operation that in some drivers works with the same code. Use after free could we easily obtained by running: while true; do echo 10 > /sys/bus/netdevsim/new_device devlink dev reload netdevsim/netdevsim10 & echo 10 > /sys/bus/netdevsim/del_device done Fix this by enabling reload only after setup of device is complete and disabling it at the beginning of the cleanup process.
