Subject: sctp: release cached route when the transport goes down.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.32-rc1~703^2~78
X-Git-Url: https://bbs.cooldavid.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=40187886bc31aee9c5c6f08f46cde4ab618e9736;p=net-next-2.6.git

sctp: release cached route when the transport goes down.

When the sctp transport is marked down, we can release the
cached route and force a new lookup when attempting to use
this transport for anything.  This way, if a better route
or source address is available, we'll try to use it.
