[PATCH 156/173] econet: Fix crash in aun_incoming().

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Mon Apr 25 2011 - 16:37:54 EST


2.6.27.59-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: David S. Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4e085e76cbe558b79b54cbab772f61185879bc64 upstream.

Unconditional use of skb->dev won't work here,
try to fetch the econet device via skb_dst()->dev
instead.

Suggested by Eric Dumazet.
