The following actions are possible:
tcp_v4_rcv
  skb->dev = NULL;
  tcp_v4_do_rcv
    tcp_v4_hnd_req
      tcp_check_req
        req->rsk_ops->send_ack == tcp_v4_send_ack

So, skb->dev can be NULL in tcp_v4_send_ack. We must obtain namespace
from dst entry. IPv6 codepath is similar.

Thanks to Vitaliy Gusev <vgusev@openvz.org> for initial oops decoding.

Vitaliy sent the same patch first, so I applied his copy :-)

Thanks everyone.

Whoops... Denis can you resubmit just the ipv6 side
fix then?  I already pushed Vitaliy's commit out
to net-2.6

Thanks.

Den's patch is not the same. My patch didn't fix IPv6 code.
