mptcp: use proper req destructor for IPv6

[PATCH 5.15 0/2] mptcp: use proper req destructor for IPv6

Posted by Mat Martineau 1 year, 3 months ago

Greg -

Here are backports of two MPTCP patches that recently failed to apply to
the 5.15 stable tree. Two prerequisite patches are already queued in
5.15.87-rc1:

  mptcp: mark ops structures as ro_after_init
  mptcp: remove MPTCP 'ifdef' in TCP SYN cookies

These patches prevent IPv6 memory leaks with MPTCP.

Thanks!

Sorry about the cut & paste error on the cover letter subject line, was 
supposed to be "v5.15 stable backports for MPTCP request sock fixes".

No worries, all now queued up.
