From b79d1d54cf0672f764402fe4711ef5306f917bd3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Thu, 25 Mar 2010 21:39:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: Fix result generation in ipv6_get_ifaddr(). Finishing naturally from hlist_for_each_entry(x, ...) does not result in 'x' being NULL. Signed-off-by: David S.
