Maciej Żenczykowski f152793058 Revert "ipv6: add mtu lock check in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu" 
[ Upstream commit 09454fd0a4 ]

This reverts commit 19bda36c42:

| ipv6: add mtu lock check in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu
|
| Prior to this patch, ipv6 didn't do mtu lock check in ip6_update_pmtu.
| It leaded to that mtu lock doesn't really work when receiving the pkt
| of ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG.
|
| This patch is to add mtu lock check in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu just as ipv4
| did in __ip_rt_update_pmtu.

The above reasoning is incorrect.  IPv6 *requires* icmp based pmtu to work.
There's already a comment to this effect elsewhere in the kernel:

  $ git grep -p -B1 -A3 'RTAX_MTU lock'
  net/ipv6/route.c=4813=

  static int rt6_mtu_change_route(struct fib6_info *f6i, void *p_arg)
  ...
    /* In IPv6 pmtu discovery is not optional,
       so that RTAX_MTU lock cannot disable it.
       We still use this lock to block changes
       caused by addrconf/ndisc.
    */

This reverts to the pre-4.9 behaviour.

README 

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.
