Subject: patch 4.8 "net: handle no dst on skb in icmp6_send"

Hello,

any particular reason why this fix 
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=79dc7e3f1cd323be4c81aa1a94faa1b3ed987fb2 
was missed from stable 4.8 line? Apparently the bug being fixed has its 
own https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-9919

Thank you for your hard work and best regards

B.
