From bc436ddffc68d8c9e3e2e69e3253445af85c0881 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Kubecek Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2012 11:09:13 +0100 Subject: route: release dst_entry.hh_cache when handling redirects Stable-3.0 commit 42ab5316 (ipv4: fix redirect handling) was backport of mainline commit 9cc20b26 from 3.2-rc3 where hh member of struct dst_entry was already gone. However, in 3.0 we still have it and we have to clean it as well, otherwise it keeps pointing to the cleaned up (and unusable) hh_cache entry and packets cannot be sent out.
