You need to cc the netdev mailing list to allow up processing the
patch.

Please also include the target tree in the subject prefix ('net' in
this case), a suitable fixes tag and avoid sending patches in reply to
existing threads as it confuses our bot.

@David (out of sheer ignorace) could this the root cause for the fib6

Thanks,

Paolo
