Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] ipv6: fix issues on accessing fib6_metrics 

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

The latest fix on the memory leak of fib6_metrics still causes
use-after-free.
This patch series first revert the previous fix and propose a new fix
that is more inline with ipv4 logic and is tested to fix the
use-after-free issue reported.

Wei Wang (2):
  Revert "ipv6: fix double refcount of fib6_metrics"
  ipv6: fix memory leak on dst->_metrics
