This happens when the loopback device is set down and a ipv6 fib route
dump is requested.
ip6_null_entry is the root of all ipv6 fib tables making it integrated
into the table and hence passed to the ipv6 route dump code. The
null_entry route uses the loopback device for dst.dev but may not have
rt6i_idev set because of the order in which initializations are done --
ip6_route_net_init is run before addrconf_init has initialized the
loopback device. Fixing the initialization order is a much bigger problem
with no obvious solution thus far.
The BUG is triggered when the loopback is set down and the netif_running
check added by
a1a22c1206 fails. The fill_node descends to checking
rt->rt6i_idev for ignore_routes_with_linkdown and since rt6i_idev is
NULL it faults.
The null_entry route should not be processed in a dump request. Catch
and ignore. This check is done in rt6_dump_route as it is the highest
place in the callchain with knowledge of both the route and the network
namespace.
