Folks,
I was checking the CVE-2017-9076 [1], which mentions this commit:
commit 83eaddab4378db256d00d295bda6ca997cd13a52
Author: WANG Cong <xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue May 9 16:59:54 2017 -0700
ipv6/dccp: do not inherit ipv6_mc_list from parent
Like commit 657831ffc38e ("dccp/tcp: do not inherit mc_list from parent")
we should clear ipv6_mc_list etc. for IPv6 sockets too.

And I was wondering if it could simply be sent to stable trees. The change
can be cherry-picked on 4.9.y, for example.
Greg, what do you think?
