Subject: ipv6: update ip6_rt_last_gc every time GC is run
From: Michal Kubeček <mkubecek@xxxxxxx>
commit 49a18d86f66d33a20144ecb5a34bba0d1856b260 upstream.
As pointed out by Eric Dumazet, net->ipv6.ip6_rt_last_gc should
hold the last time garbage collector was run so that we should
update it whenever fib6_run_gc() calls fib6_clean_all(), not only
if we got there from ip6_dst_gc().
