3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Michal Kubecek <redacted>
Stable-3.0 commit 42ab5316 (ipv4: fix redirect handling) was
backport of mainline commit 9cc20b26 from 3.2-rc3 where hh
member of struct dst_entry was already gone.
However, in 3.0 we still have it and we have to clean it as
well, otherwise it keeps pointing to the cleaned up (and
unusable) hh_cache entry and packets cannot be sent out.
