[PATCH net] ip6_gre: release cached dst on tunnel removal

From: Nicolas Dichtel <hidden>
Date: 2015-08-25 14:21:06
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [ipv4/ipv6], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, David Ahern, Ido Schimmel, Linus Torvalds

From: huaibin Wang <redacted>

When a tunnel is deleted, the cached dst entry should be released.

This problem may prevent the removal of a netns (seen with a x-netns IPv6
gre tunnel):
  unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
