From 280b0b8e89ade4277147e598d5806de12bff5fbc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Lemon Date: Fri, 26 Jul 2019 12:16:09 -0700 Subject: ipv6: remove printk ipv6_find_hdr() prints a non-rate limited error message when it cannot find an ipv6 header at a specific offset. This could be used as a DoS, so just remove it. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Lemon Signed-off-by: David S.
