3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klass...@secunet.com>
[ Upstream commit 13d82bf50dce632355fcccafa4fe44a9b5e706d8 ]
Currently we can not flush cached pmtu/redirect informations via
the ipv4_sysctl_rtcache_flush sysctl. We need to check the rt_genid
of the old route and reset the nh exeption if the old route is
expired when we bind a new route to a nh exeption.
