batman-adv: Fix bat_v best gw refcnt after netlink dump
[ Upstream commit 9713cb0cf19f1cec6c007e3b37be0697042b6720 ] A reference for the best gateway is taken when the list of gateways in the mesh is sent via netlink. This is necessary to check whether the currently dumped entry is the currently selected gateway or not. This information is then transferred as flag BATADV_ATTR_FLAG_BEST. After the comparison of the current entry is done, batadv_v_gw_dump_entry() has to decrease the reference counter again. Otherwise the reference will be held and thus prevents a proper shutdown of the batman-adv interfaces (and some of the interfaces enslaved in it). Fixes: b71bb6f924fe ("batman-adv: add B.A.T.M.A.N. V bat_gw_dump implementations") Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Acked-by: Marek Lindner <mareklindner@neomailbox.ch> Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
