3.5.7.28 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andreas Henriksson <andreas@xxxxxxxx> commit 13eb2ab2d33c57ebddc57437a7d341995fc9138c upstream. When trying to delete a table >= 256 using iproute2 the local table will be deleted. The table id is specified as a netlink attribute when it needs more then 8 bits and iproute2 then sets the table field to RT_TABLE_UNSPEC (0). Preconditions to matching the table id in the rule delete code doesn't seem to take the "table id in netlink attribute" into condition so the frh_get_table helper function never gets to do its job when matching against current rule. Use the helper function twice instead of peaking at the table value directly.
