[ Upstream commit 6ad8de3cefdb6ffa6708b21c567df0dbf82c43a8 ]
Change icmpv4_xrlim_allow(), ip_defrag() to prevent possible UAF.
Change ipmr_prepare_xmit(), ipmr_queue_fwd_xmit(), ip_mr_output(),
ipv4_neigh_lookup() to use lockdep enabled dst_dev_rcu().
Fixes: 4a6ce2b6f2ec ("net: introduce a new function dst_dev_put()")

Thanks for the backport. I think as proposed this introduces a bug: in 6.6.y
the predecessor a74fc62eec155c (which adds dst_dev_rcu()) is missing, so
skb_dst_dev_rcu() / dst_dev_rcu() ends up being called outside an RCU read-side
section here.

Thanks,
