Subject: [PATCH 4.8 05/45] ip6_tunnel: disable caching when the traffic class is inherited

4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@...hat.com>


[ Upstream commit b5c2d49544e5930c96e2632a7eece3f4325a1888 ]

If an ip6 tunnel is configured to inherit the traffic class from
the inner header, the dst_cache must be disabled or it will foul
the policy routing.

The issue is apprently there since at leat Linux-2.6.12-rc2.
