[PATCH 4.2 08/61] ipv6: Check rt->dst.from for the DST_NOCACHE route

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat Dec 12 2015 - 15:14:32 EST


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

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

From: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@xxxxxx>

[ Upstrem commit 02bcf4e082e4dc634409a6a6cb7def8806d6e5e6 ]

All DST_NOCACHE rt6_info used to have rt->dst.from set to
its parent.

After commit 8e3d5be73681 ("ipv6: Avoid double dst_free"),
DST_NOCACHE is also set to rt6_info which does not have
a parent (i.e. rt->dst.from is NULL).

This patch catches the rt->dst.from == NULL case.

Fixes: 8e3d5be73681 ("ipv6: Avoid double dst_free")
