Subject: Re: BUG warnings in 4.14.9

Guys,

Chris reported the bug below and confirmed that reverting commit
9704f81 (ipv6: grab rt->rt6i_ref before allocating pcpu rt) seems to
have fixed the issue for him. This patch is a94b9367 in mainline.

I personally have no opinion on the patch, just found it because it
was the only one touching this area between 4.14.8 and 4.14.9 :-)

Should this be reverted or maybe fixed differently ?

thanks,
Willy
