Merge branch 'ipv6-fix-issues-on-accessing-fib6_metrics'
Wei Wang says: ==================== ipv6: fix issues on accessing fib6_metrics The latest fix on the memory leak of fib6_metrics still causes use-after-free. This patch series first revert the previous fix and propose a new fix that is more inline with ipv4 logic and is tested to fix the use-after-free issue reported. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
