No, this is not how you ask for networking changes to be submitted to
-stable.

Oh..sorry,

I must missed something important!
What's the right way?

This patch solves the bug is 67951 on bugzilla
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67951
It's very worthy to be applied to stable 3.4.x kernels.
As this patch can't be applied directly, I just modify
it in my last mail,

Thanks,

Weilong

Yes, you miss the FAQ:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/netdev-FAQ.txt

> What's the right way?

Q: How can I tell what patches are queued up for backporting to the
   various stable releases?

A: Normally Greg Kroah-Hartman collects stable commits himself, but
   for networking, Dave collects up patches he deems critical for the
   networking subsystem, and then hands them off to Greg.

"commit 33d99113b1102c2d2f8603b9ba72d89d915c13f5
ipv6: reallocate addrconf router for ipv6 address when lo device up."
This commit don't have a stable tag, but it fix the bug
no reply after loopback down-up.I think it should be
applied to stable 3.4.x kernels.

The bug is 67951 on bugzilla
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67951

The patch can't be applied directly. And it used the function introduced
by "commit 94e187c0" ip6_rt_put(), this patch can't be applied directly
either.
