[PATCH 3.13.y-ckt 13/86] net: fix a race in dst_release()

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.13.11-ckt31 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet at google.com>

[ Upstream commit d69bbf88c8d0b367cf3e3a052f6daadf630ee566 ]

Only cpu seeing dst refcount going to 0 can safely
dereference dst->flags.

Otherwise an other cpu might already have freed the dst.

Fixes: 27b75c95f10d ("net: avoid RCU for NOCACHE dst")
