The patch cited in the Fixes tag below changed the teardown code for
OVS ports to no longer unconditionally take the RTNL. After this change,
the netdev_destroy() callback can proceed immediately to the call_rcu()
invocation if the IFF_OVS_DATAPATH flag is already cleared on the
netdev.
The ovs_netdev_detach_dev() function clears the flag before completing
the unregistration, and if it gets preempted after clearing the flag (as
can happen on an -rt kernel), netdev_destroy() can complete and the
device can be freed before the unregistration completes. This leads to a
splat like:

To fix this, reorder the operations in ovs_netdev_detach_dev() to only
clear the flag after completing the other operations, and introduce an
smp_wmb() to make the ordering requirement explicit. The smp_wmb() is
paired with a full smp_mb() in netdev_destroy() to make sure the
call_rcu() invocation does not happen before the unregister operations
are visible.
