I am not too deeply involved in the security header but for me it feels
like your patch does the opposite of what's needed. We should maybe
initialize hdr->key_id_mode based on the value in cb->secen, no? (maybe
Alexander will have a better understanding than I have).

This is a resend, a message in a shortlog to express why is welcome. If
it's a ping, then no need to resend.
