net: fix potential neighbour race in dst_ifdown()
Followup of commit f2c31e32b378a (fix NULL dereferences in check_peer_redir()). We need to make sure dst neighbour doesnt change in dst_ifdown(). Fix some sparse errors. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
