Hi David,

Please queue this for 3.4 stable kernel.

It fix the bug 67951 on bugzilla
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67951

The patch can't be applied directly, as it' used the function introduced
by "commit 94e187c0" ip6_rt_put(), that patch can't be applied directly
either. So I had to write this one.

-- 1.7.12

dst_release() does not take a "struct rt6_info *", and therefore
the compile warns when you try to compile this.

For something like -stable, we should be as conservative as possible,
I expect at a minimum that you look at the build for warnings added by
your change.
