Currently, we are deleting offloaded encap flows in case the relevant neigh becomes unconnected while the encap is valid (a sign that it used to be connected), or if the curr neigh mac is different from the cached mac (a sign that the remote side changed their mac). The 2nd check also applies when the neigh becomes connected on the 1st time (we start with zero mac). Before the offending commit, the deleting handler was practically no op, as no flows were offloaded. But since that commit, we offload neigh-less encap flows to slow path. Under mirroring scheme, we go into the delete handler, attempt to unoffload a mirror rule which was never set (as we were offloading to slow path) and crash. Fix that by calling the delete handler only when the encap is valid, which covers both cases mentioned above.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
