[PATCH net-next-2.6] l2tp: fix l2tp_ip_sendmsg() route handling
From: Eric Dumazet <hidden>
Date: 2011-06-12 08:27:16
l2tp_ip_sendmsg() in non connected mode incorrectly calls sk_setup_caps(). Subsequent send() calls send data to wrong destination. We can also avoid changing dst refcount in connected mode, using appropriate rcu locking. Once output route lookups can also be done under rcu, sendto() calls wont change dst refcounts too.
