Merge branch 'ipv6-addrlabel-avoid-dirtying-ip6addrlbl_entry'
Eric Dumazet says: ==================== ipv6: addrlabel: avoid dirtying ip6addrlbl_entry The refcount on ip6addrlbl_entry is only used to make sure ip6addrlbl_entry does not disappear while ip6addrlbl_get() is allocating an skb. We can instead allocate skb first, then use RCU, so that we no longer need to refcount these structures. ==================== Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
