Subject: [PATCH] IPv6: Fix kernel panic while send SCTP data with IP fragments

From: Wei Yongjun <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 20 Aug 2007 09:28:27 +0800

If ICMP6 message with "Packet Too Big" is received after send SCTP DATA,
kernel panic will occur when SCTP DATA is send again.

This is because of a bad dest address when call to skb_copy_bits().

The messages sequence is like this:

Endpoint A                             Endpoint B
                               <-------  SCTP DATA (size=1432) 
ICMP6 message ------->
(Packet Too Big pmtu=1280)
                               <-------  Resend SCTP DATA (size=1432) 
------------kernel panic---------------
