Subject: ipv4: Remove leftover rcu_read_unlock calls from __mkroute_output()
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8391d07b80e8da957cd888870e23f8e218438622;p=linux-beck.git

ipv4: Remove leftover rcu_read_unlock calls from __mkroute_output()

Commit "fib: RCU conversion of fib_lookup()" removed rcu_read_lock() from
__mkroute_output but left a couple of calls to rcu_read_unlock() in there.
This causes lockdep to complain that the rcu_read_unlock() call in
__ip_route_output_key causes a lock inbalance and quickly crashes the
kernel. The below fixes this for me.
