please revert that on 4.9 and 4.14
it breaks igmp routing. it can be reproduced with any iptv connection
using igmp-proxy. reverting this patch fixes the issue.
Then should it be reverted in mainline as well?
yes

Please submit a proper report to the netdev list with the patch
author CC:'d explaining the situation exactly so that we can move
forweard.+
could ne author of the patch please handle that bureaucracy.
i mean, i wanted to let you know what my findings are, beside this i'm still a hard working developer. i integrated it into my own kernels and informed the openwrt/lede people already i dont have time for hours of discussions. i explained earlier my thoughts about the cause of the fault in the patch. this should be enough a more proper report would require deeper analyse and debugging of the problem which isnt really neccessary for 10 code lines from my point of view

Sebastian

Thank you.
