Phil Sutter 86deaaa0ca ipv4: fib: Fix metrics match when deleting a route
[ Upstream commit d03a45572e ]

The recently added fib_metrics_match() causes a regression for routes
with both RTAX_FEATURES and RTAX_CC_ALGO if the latter has
TCP_CONG_NEEDS_ECN flag set:

| # ip link add d0 type dummy
| # ip link set d0 up
| # ip route add 172.29.29.0/24 dev d0 features ecn congctl dctcp
| # ip route del 172.29.29.0/24 dev d0 features ecn congctl dctcp
| RTNETLINK answers: No such process

During route insertion, fib_convert_metrics() detects that the given CC
algo requires ECN and hence sets DST_FEATURE_ECN_CA bit in
RTAX_FEATURES.

During route deletion though, fib_metrics_match() compares stored
RTAX_FEATURES value with that from userspace (which obviously has no
knowledge about DST_FEATURE_ECN_CA) and fails.

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
