Probably, the caller should not set RTF_EXPIRES when allocating
new one. Instead, set rt6i_expires and RTF_EXPIRES afterwards
(as your patch does).
And, please make your patch so that we can apply it by "patch -p1"
at the top directory of the tree; e.g.
% diff -u linux-2.6.15.{orig,fix}/net/ipv6/route.c > fix.patch
Thank you.
