Re: [Bug] OOPS with nf_conntrack_ipv6, probably fragmented UDPv6

I've hit another kernel oops with 2.6.20-rc3 on i386 platform. It is

something large (scp or so) inside an OpenVPN tunnel on my client
(patched with UDPv6 transport) the router (another box) OOPSes.

tcpdump suggests the problem appears as soon as my client sends
fragmented UDPv6 packets towards the destination. It does not happen
when nf_conntrack_ipv6 is not loaded. This is the OOPS as dumped from
the serial console:
Does this patch help?

Yes, seems to be working fine.

Can you tell since when this bug is in the kernel?
