Subject: [PATCH 4.19 19/96] route: Avoid crash from dereferencing NULL rt->from

From: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 9c69a13205151c0d801de9f9d83a818e6e8f60ec ]

When __ip6_rt_update_pmtu() is called, rt->from is RCU dereferenced, but is
never checked for null - rt6_flush_exceptions() may have removed the entry.
