Subject: [PATCH 4.12 03/52] ipv6: fix sparse warning on rt6i_node

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

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

From: Wei Wang <weiwan@...gle.com>


[ Upstream commit 4e587ea71bf924f7dac621f1351653bd41e446cb ]

Commit c5cff8561d2d adds rcu grace period before freeing fib6_node. This
generates a new sparse warning on rt->rt6i_node related code:
  net/ipv6/route.c:1394:30: error: incompatible types in comparison
  expression (different address spaces)
  ./include/net/ip6_fib.h:187:14: error: incompatible types in comparison
  expression (different address spaces)

This commit adds "__rcu" tag for rt6i_node and makes sure corresponding
rcu API is used for it.
After this fix, sparse no longer generates the above warning.
