ipv6: fix incorrect route 'expires' value passed to userspace
When userspace use RTM_GETROUTE to dump route table, with an already expired route entry, we always got an 'expires' value(2147157) calculated base on INT_MAX. The reason of this problem is in the following satement: rt->dst.expires - jiffies < INT_MAX gcc promoted the type of both sides of '<' to unsigned long, thus a small negative value would be considered greater than INT_MAX. With the help of Eric Dumazet, do the out of bound checks in rtnl_put_cacheinfo(), _after_ conversion to clock_t. Signed-off-by: Li Wei <lw@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
