Ok, final decision: you are right :) conntrack also defragments locally
generated packets before they hit ip_fragment. In this case the fragments
have skb->dst set.

Well caught. The same thing is needed for IPv6, right?


(not yet confirmed, but) yes, please.

We don't need this for IPv6 yet. Once we get nf_conntrack in we
might need this, but its IPv6 fragment handling is different from
ip_conntrack, I need to check first.
