From 897dc80b951e996ba4d26c0038e81a505b92aec1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2011 04:00:35 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: avoid a dst_entry refcount change in ipv6_destopt_rcv() ipv6_destopt_rcv() runs with rcu_read_lock(), so there is no need to take a temporay reference on dst_entry, even if skb is freed by ip6_parse_tlv() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
