Kernel panic with ipsec over ipv6

[Scott Harrison]

Hi,

I have recently upgraded from 4.1.6 to 4.2.1 and am now seeing a kernel
panic when trying to do IPSec (using ipsec-tools, racoon and setkey) over
IPv6:

Call Trace:

(I had to copy this by hand from the console, so there may be typos, sorry)

I have done a git bisect on the kernel and found that this started to occur
at 8d0b94afdca84598912347e61defa846a0988d04, if I revert this change in
kernel 4.2.2, then the system works as expected.

Is this the right place to report this, has it been seen before ?

I'm not on the mailing list so please CC me in responses.

Regards,

Scott Harrison
