From: Marek Lindner <mareklindner@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 4c4af6900844ab04c9434c972021d7b48610e06a ] The hardif_neigh refcounter is to be decreased by the queued work and currently is never decreased if the queue_work() call fails. Fix by checking the queue_work() return value and decrease refcount if necessary.
