This reverts commit 19bda36c4299ce3d7e5bce10bebe01764a655a6d:
| ipv6: add mtu lock check in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu
|
| Prior to this patch, ipv6 didn't do mtu lock check in ip6_update_pmtu.
| It leaded to that mtu lock doesn't really work when receiving the pkt
| of ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG.
|
| This patch is to add mtu lock check in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu just as ipv4
| did in __ip_rt_update_pmtu.
The above reasoning is incorrect. IPv6 *requires* icmp based pmtu to work.
There's already a comment to this effect elsewhere in the kernel:
$ git grep -p -B1 -A3 'RTAX_MTU lock'
net/ipv6/route.c=4813=
static int rt6_mtu_change_route(struct fib6_info *f6i, void *p_arg)
...
/* In IPv6 pmtu discovery is not optional,
so that RTAX_MTU lock cannot disable it.
We still use this lock to block changes
caused by addrconf/ndisc.
*/
This reverts to the pre-4.9 behaviour.

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.
