Subject: [070/152] econet: Fix crash in aun_incoming().

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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


From: David S. Miller <davem@...emloft.net>

[ Upstream commit 4e085e76cbe558b79b54cbab772f61185879bc64 ]

Unconditional use of skb->dev won't work here,
try to fetch the econet device via skb_dst()->dev
instead.

Suggested by Eric Dumazet.
