[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 007/165] flowcache: Fix kernel panic in flow_cache_flush_task
3.16.7-ckt9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. -- From: Miroslav Urbanek commit 233c96fc077d310772375d47522fb444ff546905 upstream. flow_cache_flush_task references a structure member flow_cache_gc_work where it should reference flow_cache_flush_task instead. Kernel panic occurs on kernels using IPsec during XFRM garbage collection. The garbage collection interval can be shortened using the following sysctl settings: net.ipv4.xfrm4_gc_thresh=4 net.ipv6.xfrm6_gc_thresh=4 With the default settings, our productions servers crash approximately once a week. With the settings above, they crash immediately.
