[PATCH] net: Add missing extra2 parameter for ip_default_ttlsysctl

From: Sven Wegener
Date: Sun Aug 03 2008 - 16:19:23 EST


Commit 76e6ebfb40a2455c18234dcb0f9df37533215461 acceses the extra2 parameter of
the ip_default_ttl ctl_table, but it is never set to a meaningful value. When
e84f84f276473dcc673f360e8ff3203148bdf0e2 is applied, we'll oops in
rt_cache_invalidate(). Set extra2 to init_net, to avoid that.
