4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Moni Shoua <monis@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit bebb2a473a43c8f84a8210687d1cbdde503046d7 upstream. In function addr_resolve() the namespace is a required input parameter and not an output. It is passed later for searching the routing table and device addresses. Also, it shouldn't be copied back to the caller.
