3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klass...@secunet.com>
[ Upstream commit ee9a8f7ab2edf801b8b514c310455c94acc232f6 ]
We report cached pmtu values even if they are already expired.
Change this to not report these values after they are expired
and fix a race in the expire time calculation, as suggested by
Eric Dumazet.
