That is\nthe teardown handshake: lockless readers gate on the flag through\nbr_multicast_ctx_should_use() -> br_multicast_ctx_vlan_disabled(), so\nonce it is cleared under the lock no reader can arm the context again.\n\nFor a master VLAN the handshake never runs.  __vlan_del() clears\nBRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_BRENTRY before calling br_vlan_put_master(), so\nbr_multicast_toggle_one_vlan(masterv, false) returns early on\n!br_vlan_is_brentry(vlan): the flag stays set and br->multicast_lock is\nnever taken.  br_vlan_put_master() then drains the context in\nbr_multicast_ctx_deinit() and frees the VLAN through call_rcu(), while a\nreader still inside rcu_read_lock() sees the context as enabled and\nre-arms it.  The port and port-VLAN branch of the function has no\nbr_vlan_is_brentry() test and flips the flag under br->multicast_lock,\nso it is not affected.\n\nThe reader is the bridge transmit path.  For a master VLAN\nbr_multicast_rcv() selects brmctx = &vlan->br_mcast_ctx with\npmctx = NULL, so IGMP sent to the bridge device re-arms the context's\ntimers after br_multicast_ctx_deinit() has already stopped them.\n\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in detach_if_pending+0x412/0x4a0\n  Write of size 8 at addr ffff88810ac39918 by task brmc/601\n   __mod_timer+0x51a/0xc50\n   br_multicast_host_join+0x25b/0x390\n   __br_multicast_add_group+0x468/0x530\n   br_ip4_multicast_add_group+0x1a0/0x260\n   br_multicast_rcv+0x2cda/0x61e0\n   br_dev_xmit+0x6c4/0x1540\n  Allocated by task 610:\n   br_vlan_add+0x111/0xb40\n   br_vlan_info+0x370/0x3e0\n  Freed by task 0:\n   kfree+0x1a7/0x4f0\n   rcu_core+0x7dc/0x10a0\n\nOnly test br_vlan_is_brentry() when enabling, like the\nbr_multicast_ctx_vlan_global_disabled() test next to it.
