------------------
From: Alexey Dobriyan <[email protected]>
changeset 891e6a931255238dddd08a7b306871240961a27f from mainline.
Commit a3d384029aa304f8f3f5355d35f0ae274454f7cd aka
"[AX.25]: Fix unchecked rose_add_loopback_neigh uses"
transformed rose_loopback_neigh var into statically allocated one.
However, on unload it will be kfree's which can't work.
Steps to reproduce:
modprobe rose
rmmod rose
