Subject: net:dccp: do not report ICMP redirects to user space
From: Duan Jiong <duanj.fnst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit bd784a140712fd06674f2240eecfc4ccae421129 ]
DCCP shouldn't be setting sk_err on redirects as it
isn't an error condition. it should be doing exactly
what tcp is doing and leaving the error handler without
touching the socket.
