3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Thomas Graf <tg...@suug.ch>
[ Upstream commit d189634ecab947c10f6f832258b103d0bbfe73cc ]
/proc/net/ipv6_route reflects the contents of fib_table_hash. The proc
handler is installed in ip6_route_net_init() whereas fib_table_hash is
allocated in fib6_net_init() _after_ the proc handler has been installed.
This opens up a short time frame to access fib_table_hash with its pants
down.
Move the registration of the proc files to a later point in the init
order to avoid the race.
Tested :-)
