Subject: [PATCH v2] net: check for refcount if pop a stacked dst_entry

From: Steffen Klassert <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 4 Jun 2010 13:57:38 +0200

xfrm triggers a warning if dst_pop() drops a refcount
on a noref dst. This patch changes dst_pop() to
skb_dst_pop(). skb_dst_pop() drops the refcnt only
on a refcounted dst. Also we don't clone the child
dst_entry, so it is not refcounted and we can use
skb_dst_set_noref() in xfrm_output_one().
