Subject: [PATCH 3.2 21/77] ip6mr: call del_timer_sync() in ip6mr_free_table()

3.2.75-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: WANG Cong <xiyou.wangcong@...il.com>

commit 7ba0c47c34a1ea5bc7a24ca67309996cce0569b5 upstream.

We need to wait for the flying timers, since we
are going to free the mrtable right after it.
