4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 95ef498d977bf44ac094778fd448b98af158a3e6 ] In my last patch, I missed fact that cork.base.dst was not initialized in ip6_make_skb() : If ip6_setup_cork() returns an error, we might attempt a dst_release() on some random pointer.
