3.8.13.11 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3e3be275851bc6fc90bfdcd732cd95563acd982b ] In case a subtree did not match we currently stop backtracking and return NULL (root table from fib_lookup). This could yield in invalid routing table lookups when using subtrees. Instead continue to backtrack until a valid subtree or node is found and return this match. Also remove unneeded NULL check.
