Move call to call_fib_entry_notifiers for new IPv4 routes to right before the call to fib_insert_alias. At this point the only remaining failure path is memory allocations in fib_insert_node. Handle that very unlikely failure with a call to call_fib_entry_notifiers to tell drivers about it. At this point notifier handlers can decide the fate of the new route with a clean path to delete the potential new entry if the notifier returns non-0.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
