3.16.50-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Kalderon, Michal" <michal.kalde...@cavium.com>
commit 963916fdb3e5ad4af57ac959b5a03bf23f7568ca upstream.
Once in_dev_get is called to receive in_device pointer, the
in_device reference counter is increased, but if there are
no ipv4 addresses configured on the net-device the ifa_list
will be null, resulting in a flow that doesn't call in_dev_put
to decrease the ref_cnt.
This was exposed when running RoCE over ipv6 without any ipv4
addresses configured
Fixes: commit 8e3867310c90 ("IB/cma: Fix a race condition in
iboe_addr_get_sgid()")
