[ Upstream commit e39d5246111399dbc6e11cd39fd8580191b86c47 ] Now when creating fnhe for redirect, it sets fnhe_expires for this new route cache. But when updating the exist one, it doesn't do it. It will cause this fnhe never to be expired. Paolo already noticed it before, in Jianlin's test case, it became even worse: When ip route flush cache, the old fnhe is not to be removed, but only clean it's members. When redirect comes again, this fnhe will be found and updated, but never be expired due to fnhe_expires not being set. So fix it by simply updating fnhe_expires even it's for redirect.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
