Hi again Nicolas-

(Not really NAK: just we've already applied these separately).

These two commits ...

59e3e4b52663 ("ipv6: use READ_ONCE() for inet->hdrincl as in ipv4")
b9aa52c4cb45 ("ipv6: fix EFAULT on sendto with icmpv6 and hdrincl")

... have been committed as part of upstream stable patch sets:

bionic: bug 1838700 (4.15.0-59.66 release pending)
disco: bug 1839887 (release t.b.d.)


Again, thanks!

 -Kamal
