Here's a patch originally from Keir Fraser, which we included in SLES10, but which we forgot to submit upstream so far. During stress testing, machines were frequently crashing in __ipv6_ifa_notify on dst_hold(&ifp->rt.u_dst), with ifp->rt being a NULL pointer. The attached patch fixes the problem.
