Subject: ipv4: panic in leaf_walk_rcu due to stale node pointer
From: David Forster <dforster@xxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 94d9f1c5906b20053efe375b6d66610bca4b8b64 ]
Panic occurs when issuing "cat /proc/net/route" whilst
populating FIB with > 1M routes.
Use of cached node pointer in fib_route_get_idx is unsafe.
