Tommi Rantala d35cc7ed2c xfrm: fix missing dst_release() after policy blocking lbcast and multicast
[ Upstream commit 8cc88773855f988d6a3bbf102bbd9dd9c828eb81 ]

Fix missing dst_release() when local broadcast or multicast traffic is
xfrm policy blocked.

For IPv4 this results to dst leak: ip_route_output_flow() allocates
dst_entry via __ip_route_output_key() and passes it to
xfrm_lookup_route(). xfrm_lookup returns ERR_PTR(-EPERM) that is
propagated. The dst that was allocated is never released.

IPv4 local broadcast testcase:
 ping -b 192.168.1.255 &
 sleep 1
 ip xfrm policy add src 0.0.0.0/0 dst 192.168.1.255/32 dir out action block

IPv4 multicast testcase:
 ping 224.0.0.1 &
 sleep 1
 ip xfrm policy add src 0.0.0.0/0 dst 224.0.0.1/32 dir out action block

For IPv6 the missing dst_release() causes trouble e.g. when used in netns:
 ip netns add TEST
 ip netns exec TEST ip link set lo up
 ip link add dummy0 type dummy
 ip link set dev dummy0 netns TEST
 ip netns exec TEST ip addr add fd00::1111 dev dummy0
 ip netns exec TEST ip link set dummy0 up
 ip netns exec TEST ping -6 -c 5 ff02::1%dummy0 &
 sleep 1
 ip netns exec TEST ip xfrm policy add src ::/0 dst ff02::1 dir out action block
 wait
 ip netns del TEST

After netns deletion we see:
[  258.239097] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 2
[  268.279061] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 2
[  278.367018] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 2
[  288.375259] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 2

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.
