Subject: [PATCH 2.4] reference count clean up continued - IPv6

From: Nivedita Singhvi <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 30 Mar 2004 23:00:28 -0800

Continuing the reference count clean up, this time
in tcp_v6_rcv().  We should not be doing a sock_put()
on a socket in TIMEWAIT state.

Applies to 2.4.25+.

thanks,
Nivedita
