Subject: neigh: fix rcu splat in neigh_update()
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e049f28883126c689cf95859480d9ee4ab23b7fa;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

neigh: fix rcu splat in neigh_update()

when use dst_get_neighbour to get neighbour, we need
rcu_read_lock to protect, since dst_get_neighbour uses
rcu_dereference.

The bug was reported by Ari Savolainen <ari.m.savolainen@gmail.com>
