sure; I'll send a v2 with added Fixes: for the original
regression (749439bf), which will reappear once b515d263 (which
causes the current regression) is reverted. Note this patch needs
to be accompanied by the revert!

b515d263 touches xfrm code; but being a regression maybe we want
the fastest track possible?
