dst_entries_add() uses per-cpu data that might be freed at netns
dismantle from ip6_route_net_exit() calling dst_entries_destroy()
Before ip6_route_net_exit() can be called, we release all
the dsts associated with this netns, via calls to dst_release(),
which waits an rcu grace period before calling dst_destroy()
dst_entries_add() use in dst_destroy() is racy, because
dst_entries_destroy() could have been called already.
Decrementing the number of dsts must happen sooner.
Notes:
1) in CONFIG_XFRM case, dst_destroy() can call
dst_release_immediate(child), this might also cause UAF
if the child does not have DST_NOCOUNT set.
IPSEC maintainers might take a look and see how to address this.
2) There is also discussion about removing this count of dst,
which might happen in future kernels.

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 reStructuredText 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.
