how about add a function pointer append_data to the struct rt6_info?
so we can just call rt->append_data in ip6_append_data without conside
witch mode it is.

of course, we will set rt->append_data appropriatly in xfrm_lookup.

But the only problem is this will bloats up rt6_info,I don't konw if
it's worth doing it in this way.

thanks steffen,I miss it and CONFIG_XFRM...
