    And you see this happening after my patch ? I am blind.

    I am referring to current linux kernel, not to a backport to pre 3.18
    kernels, that was not considered when I wrote this patch.

    By the time ipip6_fb_tunnel_init() is called, dev->tstats had been
    already allocated in ipip6_tunnel_init(), so what is missing ?

    Thanks.
