3.2.69-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "David S. Miller" <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit a134f083e79fb4c3d0a925691e732c56911b4326 upstream.
If we don't do that, then the poison value is left in the ->pprev
backlink.
This can cause crashes if we do a disconnect, followed by a connect().
