From: Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com
[ Upstream commit 2f987a76a97773beafbc615b9c4d8fe79129a7f4 ]
On unsuccesful ip6_datagram_connect(), if the failure is caused by ip6_datagram_dst_update(), the sk peer information are cleared, but the sk->sk_state is preserved.
If the socket was already in an established status, the overall sk status is inconsistent and fouls later checks in datagram code.
Fix this saving the old peer information and restoring them in case of failure. This also aligns ipv6 datagram connect() behavior with ipv4.
v1 -> v2: - added missing Fixes tag
