[ 75/85] ipv4: make sure nh_pcpu_rth_output is always allocated

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Oct 25 2012 - 20:14:44 EST


3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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


From: Julian Anastasov <ja@xxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f8a17175c63fd3e8b573719f7538816f8c96abf4 ]

Avoid checking nh_pcpu_rth_output in fast path,
abort fib_info creation on alloc_percpu failure.
