From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx> Several callers (h323 conntrack, xt_addrtype) assume that the returned **dst only needs to be released if the function returns 0. This is true for the ipv4 implementation, but not for the ipv6 one. Instead of changing the users, change the ipv6 implementation to behave like the ipv4 version by only providing the dst_entry result in the success case.
