I think there's a problem in the dst refcounting in sctp_v4_get_dst()

There's a dst_entry struct that has >0 refcnt after running the testcase,
which makes it impossible to delete the loopback device, as that dst is
never freed.

I'll try to make a patch.

Are you looking at the second for loop there, which uses ip_route_output_key,
but discards the result if dst is already set?  That does look a bit wonky, and
the same problem may exist in the ipv6 path.  Let me know what the result is.

Yes, that was it. Did you receive the email I sent with the patch?
(I'm not seeing that message e.g. at spinics.net linux-sctp archive, so just wondering if that email got lost somehow...)

I'll check the ipv6 case, did not try it yet.
