Subject: [net-2.6 PATCH] ipv6: fix missing in6_ifa_put in addrconf
Date: Mon, 15 Nov 2010 22:29:21 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101116062921.31164.70903.stgit@jf-dev1-dcblab> (raw)

Fix ref count bug introduced by

commit 2de795707294972f6c34bae9de713e502c431296
Author: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com>
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().
