[PATCH 3.17 006/141] sit: Use ipip6_tunnel_init as the ndo_init function.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Nov 19 2014 - 17:30:04 EST


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

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

From: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ebe084aafb7e93adf210e80043c9f69adf56820d ]

ipip6_tunnel_init() sets the dev->iflink via a call to
ipip6_tunnel_bind_dev(). After that, register_netdevice()
sets dev->iflink = -1. So we loose the iflink configuration
for ipv6 tunnels. Fix this by using ipip6_tunnel_init() as the
ndo_init function. Then ipip6_tunnel_init() is called after
dev->iflink is set to -1 from register_netdevice().
