+From: Jason Wang <jasowang at redhat.com>
+
+This patch fixes the issue caused by ef81bb40bf15f350fe865f31fa42f1082772a576
+which is a backport of upstream 87c48fa3b4630905f98268dde838ee43626a060c. The
+problem does not exist in upstream.
+
+We do not check whether route is attached before trying to assign ip
+identification through route dest which lead NULL pointer dereference. This
+happens when host bridge transmit a packet from guest.
+
+This patch changes ipv6_select_ident() to accept in6_addr as its paramter and
+fix the issue by using the destination address in ipv6 header when no route is
+attached.
