Subject: ipv6/addrlabel: fix ip6addrlbl_get()
From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit e459dfeeb64008b2d23bdf600f03b3605dbb8152 ]
ip6addrlbl_get() has never worked. If ip6addrlbl_hold() succeeded,
ip6addrlbl_get() will exit with '-ESRCH'. If ip6addrlbl_hold() failed,
ip6addrlbl_get() will use about to be free ip6addrlbl_entry pointer.
Fix this by inverting ip6addrlbl_hold() check.
Fixes: 2a8cc6c89039 ("[IPV6] ADDRCONF: Support RFC3484 configurable address selection policy table.")
