4.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit d69bbf88c8d0b367cf3e3a052f6daadf630ee566 ] Only cpu seeing dst refcount going to 0 can safely dereference dst->flags. Otherwise an other cpu might already have freed the dst.
