Ido Schimmel c05bd0be91 net: ipv4: Fix memory leak in network namespace dismantle 
[ Upstream commit f97f4dd8b3 ]

IPv4 routing tables are flushed in two cases:

1. In response to events in the netdev and inetaddr notification chains
2. When a network namespace is being dismantled

In both cases only routes associated with a dead nexthop group are
flushed. However, a nexthop group will only be marked as dead in case it
is populated with actual nexthops using a nexthop device. This is not
the case when the route in question is an error route (e.g.,
'blackhole', 'unreachable').

Therefore, when a network namespace is being dismantled such routes are
not flushed and leaked [1].

To reproduce:
# ip netns add blue
# ip -n blue route add unreachable 192.0.2.0/24
# ip netns del blue

Fix this by not skipping error routes that are not marked with
RTNH_F_DEAD when flushing the routing tables.

To prevent the flushing of such routes in case #1, add a parameter to
fib_table_flush() that indicates if the table is flushed as part of
namespace dismantle or not.

Note that this problem does not exist in IPv6 since error routes are
associated with the loopback device.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
