Ido Schimmel c5b12410fa ipv6: fib: Don't assume only nodes hold a reference on routes
The code currently assumes that only FIB nodes can hold a reference on
routes. Therefore, after fib6_purge_rt() has run and the route is no
longer present in any intermediate nodes, it's assumed that its
reference count would be 1 - taken by the node where it's currently
stored.

However, we're going to allow users other than the FIB to take a
reference on a route, so this assumption is no longer valid and the
BUG_ON() needs to be removed.

Note that purging only takes place if the initial reference count is
different than 1. I've left that check intact, as in the majority of
systems (where routes are only referenced by the FIB), it does actually
mean the route is present in intermediate nodes.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
