RFC v2 changes
- improved commit messages
- move common metrics code from dst.c to net/ipv4/metrics.c (comment
from DaveM)
- address comments from Wei Wang and Martin KaFai Lau (let me know if
I missed something)
- fixes detected by kernel test robots
+ added fib6_metric_set to change metric on a FIB entry which could
be pointing to read-only dst_default_metrics
+ 0day testing found a problem with an intermediate patch; added
dst_hold_safe on rt->from. Code is removed 3 patches later
- allow cacheinfo to handle NULL dst; means only expires is pushed to
userspaceSeries looks great to me. Nice work David.
