xfrm6: fix inet6_dev refcount underflow problem
[ Upstream commit cc9b364bb1d58d3dae270c7a931a8cc717dc2b3b ] There are race conditions that may lead to inet6_dev refcount underflow in xfrm6_dst_destroy() and rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev(). One of the refcount underflow bugs is shown below: (cpu 1) | (cpu 2) xfrm6_dst_destroy() | ... | in6_dev_put() | | rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev() ... | ... | in6_dev_put() rt6_uncached_list_del() | ... ... | xfrm6_dst_destroy() calls rt6_uncached_list_del() after in6_dev_put(), so rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev() has a chance to call in6_dev_put() again for the same inet6_dev. Fix it by moving in6_dev_put() after rt6_uncached_list_del() in xfrm6_dst_destroy().
