Ho humm.. Here's another networking issue with the current kernel:
nf_reject_ipv6: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel. Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint nf_reject_ipv6: Unknown symbol ip6_local_out (err 0)
Hmm? I'm not sure this is new, but I hadn't noticed it before. The "unknown symbol" seems to be simply because ip6_local_out is GPL-only, and without a proper license, 'nf_reject_ipv6' not only taints the kernel but doesn't link properly..
Looks like the module license issue was just overlooked when moving the code out in commit c8d7b98bec43 ("netfilter: move nf_send_resetX() code to nf_reject_ipvX modules").
