[Impact]
There is a race condition which might trigger a use-after-free on MCTP
mdev->addrs.

[Backport]
mctp_dev refcount had to be introduced and some fixes related to it require
some backporting due to not having extended address support. One of the
pre-req commits actually adds some extra support for MCTP over tunnels.

[Potential regression]
MCTP users might regress.

Jeremy Kerr (1):
  mctp: Add refcounts to mctp_dev

Lin Ma (1):
  mctp: defer the kfree of object mdev->addrs

Matt Johnston (2):
  mctp: Allow MCTP on tun devices
  mctp: make __mctp_dev_get() take a refcount hold
