From 9d82ca98f71fd686ef2f3017c5e3e6a4871b6e46 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Fastabend Date: Mon, 15 Nov 2010 20:29:21 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: fix missing in6_ifa_put in addrconf Fix ref count bug introduced by commit 2de795707294972f6c34bae9de713e502c431296 Author: Lorenzo Colitti Date: Wed Oct 27 18:16:49 2010 +0000 ipv6: addrconf: don't remove address state on ifdown if the address is being kept Fix logic so that addrconf_ifdown() decrements the inet6_ifaddr refcnt correctly with in6_ifa_put().
