Summary
ipv6: sr: fix invalid unregister error path
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: sr: fix invalid unregister error path

The error path of seg6init() is wrong in case CONFIGIPV6SEG6LWTUNNEL is not defined. In that case if seg6hmacinit() fails, the genlunregisterfamily() isn't called.

This issue exist since commit 46738b1317e1 ("ipv6: sr: add option to control lwtunnel support"), and commit 5559cea2d5aa ("ipv6: sr: fix possible use-after-free and null-ptr-deref") replaced unregisterpernetsubsys() with genlunregisterfamily() in this error path.
