Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: [IPSEC]: Store idev entries
Problem Details: I found a bug that stopped IPsec/IPv6 from working. About a month ago IPv6 started using rt6i_idev->dev on the cached socket dst entries. If the cached socket dst entry is IPsec, then rt6i_idev will be NULL. Since we want to look at the rt6i_idev of the original route in this case, the easiest fix i...
