Hi Diogo

We try to keep fixes simple. I would of changed the out_dev_put to
out_rtnl, and then removed the unused out_dev_put. That makes the
change smaller, more obviously correct.

As far as i can see, 3688ff3077d3 is only in net-next, not an -rc
kernel. As such, we want this patch added to net-next. You indicate
this in the patch Subject: [path net-next v2].

Thanks

    Andrew
