[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e0ebde0e131b529fd721b24f62872def5ec3718c ]

rtnl_link_get_net() holds a reference on the 'struct net', we need to release
it in case of error.
