Browse source

Ioana reported a refcount warning when booting over NFS:

[    5.042532] ------------[ cut here ]------------

fib_treeref needs to be set after kzalloc. The old code had a ++ which
led to the confusion when the int was replaced by a refcount_t.

Fixes: 79976892f7 ("net: convert fib_treeref from int to refcount_t")
