ipmr: dont corrupt lists
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
ipmr_rules_exit() and ip6mr_rules_exit() free a list of items, but
forget to properly remove these items from list. List head is not
changed and still points to freed memory.

This can trigger a fault later when icmpv6_sk_exit() is called.

Fix is to either reinit list, or use list_del() to properly remove items
from list before freeing them.

Introduced by commit d1db275 (ipv6: ip6mr: support multiple
tables) and commit f0ad086 (ipv4: ipmr: support multiple tables)
