[ Upstream commit27d5332366] In the tx path of l2tp, l2tp_xmit_skb() calls skb_dst_set() to set skb's dst. However, it will eventually call inet6_csk_xmit() or ip_queue_xmit() where skb's dst will be overwritten by: skb_dst_set_noref(skb, dst); without releasing the old dst in skb. Then it causes dst/dev refcnt leak: unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 1 This can be reproduced by simply running: # modprobe l2tp_eth && modprobe l2tp_ip # sh ./tools/testing/selftests/net/l2tp.sh So before going to inet6_csk_xmit() or ip_queue_xmit(), skb's dst should be dropped. This patch is to fix it by removing skb_dst_set() from l2tp_xmit_skb() and moving skb_dst_drop() into l2tp_xmit_core().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
