3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Michal Kubecek <[email protected]> Stable-3.0 commit 42ab5316 (ipv4: fix redirect handling) was backport of mainline commit 9cc20b26 from 3.2-rc3 where hh member of struct dst_entry was already gone. However, in 3.0 we still have it and we have to clean it as well, otherwise it keeps pointing to the cleaned up (and unusable) hh_cache entry and packets cannot be sent out.
