From 2994c63863ac350c4c8c6a65d8110749c2abb95c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Denis V. Lunev" Date: Sat, 10 Nov 2007 22:12:03 -0800 Subject: [INET]: Small possible memory leak in FIB rules This patch fixes a small memory leak. Default fib rules can be deleted by the user if the rule does not carry FIB_RULE_PERMANENT flag, f.e. by ip rule flush Such a rule will not be freed as the ref-counter has 2 on start and becomes clearly unreachable after removal.
