3.11.10.11 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 54d63f787b652755e66eb4dd8892ee6d3f5197fc upstream.
It's possible to remove the FB tunnel with the command 'ip link del ip6gre0' but
this is unsafe, the module always supposes that this device exists. For example,
ip6gre_tunnel_lookup() may use it unconditionally.
Let's add a rtnl handler for dellink, which will never remove the FB tunnel (we
let ip6gre_destroy_tunnels() do the job).
Introduced by commit c12b395a4664 ("gre: Support GRE over IPv6").
