[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 161/180] vti6: fix uninit when using x-netns

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Thu May 07 2015 - 06:00:24 EST


3.16.7-ckt11 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Yao Xiwei <xiwei.yao@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 092a29a40bab8bb4530bb3e58a0597001cdecdef upstream.

When the kernel deleted a vti6 interface, this interface was not removed from
the tunnels list. Thus, when the ip6_vti module was removed, this old interface
was found and the kernel tried to delete it again. This was leading to a kernel
panic.
