Subject: igmp: call ip_mc_clear_src() only when we have no users of ip_mc_list


From: Veaceslav Falico <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 24cf3af3fed5edcf90bc2a0ed181e6ce1513d2dc ]

In igmp_group_dropped() we call ip_mc_clear_src(), which resets the number
of source filters per mulitcast. However, igmp_group_dropped() is also
called on NETDEV_DOWN, NETDEV_PRE_TYPE_CHANGE and NETDEV_UNREGISTER, which
means that the group might get added back on NETDEV_UP, NETDEV_REGISTER and
NETDEV_POST_TYPE_CHANGE respectively, leaving us with broken source
filters.

To fix that, we must clear the source filters only when there are no users
in the ip_mc_list, i.e. in ip_mc_dec_group() and on device destroy.
