From 5dc121e9a7a8a3721cefeb07f3559f50fbedc67e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaud Ebalard Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2008 02:37:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] XFRM,IPv6: initialize ip6_dst_blackhole_ops.kmem_cachep ip6_dst_blackhole_ops.kmem_cachep is not expected to be NULL (i.e. to be initialized) when dst_alloc() is called from ip6_dst_blackhole().
