Good catch. Please, extend your patch to
fix also the second place that has such error,
ip_vs_tunnel_xmit_v6. This call is missing from long time,
it was not needed. But commits that allow skb->sk (local
clients) already need it, eg.
- f2428ed5e7bc89c7 ("ipvs: load balance ipv6 connections from a local
process"), 2.6.28
- 4856c84c1358b798 ("ipvs: load balance IPv4 connections from a local
process"), 2.6.28
