3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Nicolas Dichtel <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit 54d63f787b652755e66eb4dd8892ee6d3f5197fc ] It's possible to remove the FB tunnel with the command 'ip link del ip6gre0' but this is unsafe, the module always supposes that this device exists. For example, ip6gre_tunnel_lookup() may use it unconditionally. Let's add a rtnl handler for dellink, which will never remove the FB tunnel (we let ip6gre_destroy_tunnels() do the job).
