[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.1 207/219] Bluetooth: 6lowpan: search for destination address in all peers

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2019-07-15 14:16:48
Also in: linux-bluetooth, lkml, stable
Subsystem: bluetooth subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Marcel Holtmann, Luiz Augusto von Dentz, Linus Torvalds

From: Josua Mayer <redacted>

[ Upstream commit b188b03270b7f8568fc714101ce82fbf5e811c5a ]

Handle overlooked case where the target address is assigned to a peer
and neither route nor gateway exist.

For one peer, no checks are performed to see if it is meant to receive
packets for a given address.

As soon as there is a second peer however, checks are performed
to deal with routes and gateways for handling complex setups with
multiple hops to a target address.
This logic assumed that no route and no gateway imply that the
destination address can not be reached, which is false in case of a
direct peer.
