The arp_hh_ops structure is similar to the arp_generic_ops structure.
but the latter is more general,so remove the arp_hh_ops structure.

Fix when took out the neigh->ops assignment:
8.973653] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
[    8.975027] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

I have a hard time understanding this patch submission.

This seems a mix of a net-next and net material ?



> Reported-by: kernel test robot <oliver.sang@intel.com>

If this is a bug fix, we want a Fixes: tag

This will really help us. Please don't let us guess what is going on.


Also, if this is not a bug fix, this should target net-next tree,
please take a look at Documentation/networking/netdev-FAQ.rst

In short, the stack trace in this changelog seems to be not
related to this patch, maybe a prior version ? We do not want
to keep artifacts of some buggy version that was never merged
into official tree.

Thanks.

It is net-next at best.

This patch is a v2. v1 was clearly wrong and not tested; I responded as
such 12 hours before the robot test.

Thank you for the clarification.
