Subject: [patch 48/69] IPV6: Do no rely on skb->dst before it is assigned.

-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
---------------------

From: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <[email protected]>

Because skb->dst is assigned in ip6_route_input(), it is really
bad to use it in hop-by-hop option handler(s).

Closes: Bug #8450 (Eric Sesterhenn <[email protected]>)
