Yuck. You should use dev_net(dev), it's an inline in linux/netdevice.h. Cscope is your friend :)

Thanks for the heads-up. Amended and appended. :-)

Now, does it work right? My test machine is single-homed, so I don't have an easy way to test it.

I would hope you could tell if it's working correctly, I don't have time to test it for you. You should better describe the problem you're fixing and send this to netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - that's where all the developers hang out.

I did notice you still had this #ifdef:

+ #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS
+ if (ip_route_output_key(out->nd_net, &rt, &fl) != 0) {
+ #else
+ if (ip_route_output_key(&init_net, &rt, &fl) != 0) {
+ #endif

You'll want to fix that too.
