And you see this happening after my patch ? I am blind.

I am referring to current linux kernel, not to a backport to pre 3.18
kernels, that was not considered when I wrote this patch.

By the time ipip6_fb_tunnel_init() is called, dev->tstats had been
already allocated in ipip6_tunnel_init(), so what is missing ?

Thanks.
