vxlan: Avoid creating fdb entry with NULL destination
[ Upstream commit 2936b6ab455433a5ad14c7a1d2473afe1fa3faa7 ] Commit afbd8bae9c798c5cdbe4439d3a50536b5438247c vxlan: add implicit fdb entry for default destination creates an implicit fdb entry for default destination. This results in an invalid fdb entry if default destination is not specified. For ex: ip link add vxlan1 type vxlan id 100 creates the following fdb entry 00:00:00:00:00:00 dev vxlan1 dst 0.0.0.0 self permanent This patch fixes this issue by creating an fdb entry only if a valid default destination is specified.
