ipv6: NULL pointer dereferrence in tcp_v6_send_ack
The following actions are possible: tcp_v6_rcv skb->dev = NULL; tcp_v6_do_rcv tcp_v6_hnd_req tcp_check_req req->rsk_ops->send_ack == tcp_v6_send_ack So, skb->dev can be NULL in tcp_v6_send_ack. We must obtain namespace from dst entry. Thanks to Vitaliy Gusev <vgusev@openvz.org> for initial problem finding in IPv4 code. Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
