When a VNI is re-added with the same attributes (e.g. same group or no
group), vxlan_vni_update() sends a spurious RTM_NEWTUNNEL notification
even though nothing changed.
The bug is that 'if (changed)' tests whether the pointer is non-NULL,
not the bool value it points to. Since every caller passes a valid
pointer, the condition is always true and the notification fires
unconditionally.
Fix by dereferencing the pointer: 'if (*changed)'.
Reproducer:
# ip link add vxlan100 type vxlan dstport 4789 local 10.0.0.1 \
nolearning external vnifilter
# ip link set vxlan100 up
# bridge monitor vni &
# bridge vni add vni 1000 dev vxlan100
# bridge vni add vni 1000 dev vxlan100 # spurious notification
