From 2c12a74cc4aeaebc378aa40ee11c7761a8ed05e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Wrobel Date: Mon, 26 Feb 2007 15:36:10 -0800 Subject: [IPV6]: anycast refcnt fix This patch fixes a bug in Linux IPv6 stack which caused anycast address to be added to a device prior DAD has been completed. This led to incorrect reference count which resulted in infinite wait for unregister_netdevice completion on interface removal. Signed-off-by: Michal Wrobel Signed-off-by: David S.
