ipv6: reallocate addrconf router for ipv6 address when lo device up
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 25fb6ca
"net IPv6 : Fix broken IPv6 routing table after loopback down-up"
allocates addrconf router for ipv6 address when lo device up.
but commit a881ae1
"ipv6:don't call addrconf_dst_alloc again when enable lo" breaks
this behavior.

Since the addrconf router is moved to the garbage list when
lo device down, we should release this router and rellocate
a new one for ipv6 address when lo device up.

This patch solves bug 67951 on bugzilla
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67951

change from v1:
use ip6_rt_put to repleace ip6_del_rt, thanks Hannes!
change code style, suggested by Sergei.
