Subject: vxlan: fix hlist corruption

From: Jiri Benc <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 69e766612c4bcb79e19cebed9eed61d4222c1d47 ]

It's not a good idea to add the same hlist_node to two different hash lists. This leads to various hard to debug memory corruptions.

Fixes b1be00a6c39f ("vxlan: support both IPv4 and IPv6 sockets in a single vxlan device")
