[RFC PATCH net-next v1 1/3] net: route: expire rt if the dst it holds is expired

From: Leone Fernando
Date: Thu Jan 25 2024 - 08:13:07 EST


The function rt_is_expired is used to verify that a cached dst is valid.
Currently, this function ignores the rt.dst->expires value.

Add a check to rt_is_expired that validates that the dst is not expired.
