From: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f081042d128a0c7acbd67611def62e1b52e2d294 ] When do IPv6 tunnel PMTU update and calls __ip6_rt_update_pmtu() in the end, we should not call dst_confirm_neigh() as there is no two-way communication. So disable the neigh confirm for vxlan and geneve pmtu update. v5: No change. v4: No change. v3: Do not remove dst_confirm_neigh, but add a new bool parameter in dst_ops.update_pmtu to control whether we should do neighbor confirm. Also split the big patch to small ones for each area. v2: Remove dst_confirm_neigh in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu. Fixes: a93bf0ff4490 ("vxlan: update skb dst pmtu on tx path") Fixes: 52a589d51f10 ("geneve: update skb dst pmtu on tx path") Reviewed-by: Guillaume Nault <gnault@xxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Guillaume Nault <gnault@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: David Ahern <dsahern@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
