From 971bba0417ee10aaca19d5ed0b175049e78997df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julian Anastasov Date: Sun, 7 Aug 2011 10:17:22 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ipv4: use dst with ref during bcast/mcast loopback Make sure skb dst has reference when moving to another context. Currently, I don't see protocols that can hit it when sending broadcasts/multicasts to loopback using noref dsts, so it is just a precaution. Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov Signed-off-by: David S.
