lwtunnel: fix autoload of lwt modules
Trying to add an mpls encap route when the MPLS modules are not loaded hangs. For example: CONFIG_MPLS=y CONFIG_NET_MPLS_GSO=m CONFIG_MPLS_ROUTING=m CONFIG_MPLS_IPTUNNEL=m $ ip route add 10.10.10.10/32 encap mpls 100 via inet 10.100.1.2 The ip command hangs: root 880 826 0 21:25 pts/0 00:00:00 ip route add 10.10.10.10/32 encap mpls 100 via inet 10.100.1.2 $ cat /proc/880/stack [<ffffffff81065a9b>] call_usermodehelper_exec+0xd6/0x134 [<ffffffff81065efc>] __request_module+0x27b/0x30a [<ffffffff814542f6>] lwtunnel_build_state+0xe4/0x178 [<ffffffff814aa1e4>] fib_create_info+0x47f/0xdd4 [<ffffffff814ae451>] fib_table_insert+0x90/0x41f [<ffffffff814a8010>] inet_rtm_newroute+0x4b/0x52 ... modprobe is trying to load rtnl-lwt-MPLS: root 881 5 0 21:25 ? 00:00:00 /sbin/modprobe -q -- rtnl-lwt-MPLS and it hangs after loading mpls_router: $ cat /proc/881/stack [<ffffffff81441537>] rtnl_lock+0x12/0x14 [<ffffffff8142ca2a>] register_netdevice_notifier+0x16/0x179 [<ffffffffa0033025>] mpls_init+0x25/0x1000 [mpls_router] [<ffffffff81000471>] do_one_initcall+0x8e/0x13f [<ffffffff81119961>] do_init_module+0x5a/0x1e5 [<ffffffff810bd070>] load_module+0x13bd/0x17d6 ... The problem is that lwtunnel_build_state is called with rtnl lock held preventing mpls_init from registering. Given the potential references held by the time lwtunnel_build_state it can not drop the rtnl lock to the load module. So, extract the module loading code from lwtunnel_build_state into a new function to validate the encap type. The new function is called while converting the user request into a fib_config which is well before any table, device or fib entries are examined.
