Subject: ipv6: fib: Restore NTF_ROUTER exception in fib6_age()
From: Thomas Graf <[email protected]>
[ Upstream commit 8bd74516b1bd9308c17f67583134d93f777203ca ]
Commit 5339ab8b1dd82 (ipv6: fib: Convert fib6_age() to
dst_neigh_lookup().) seems to have mistakenly inverted the
exception for cached NTF_ROUTER routes.
