tipc: force a dst refcount before doing decryption
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
As it says in commit 3bc0732 ("xfrm: Force a dst refcount before
entering the xfrm type handlers"):

"Crypto requests might return asynchronous. In this case we leave the
 rcu protected region, so force a refcount on the skb's destination
 entry before we enter the xfrm type input/output handlers."

On TIPC decryption path it has the same problem, and skb_dst_force()
should be called before doing decryption to avoid a possible crash.

Shuang reported this issue when this warning is triggered:
