Argh...
Sorry, my e-mail client messed up the patch. Here the resend:


------

From: Christoph Paasch <christoph.paasch@uclouvain.be>
Date: Sat, 6 Apr 2013 10:21:01 +0200
Subject: [PATCH] ipv6/tcp: Stop processing ICMPv6 redirect messages

Upon reception of an ICMPv6 Redirect message, we should not continue
inside tcp_v6_err. Otherwise, an error will be reported or request-socks
will be closed.

Adds also some parantheses to respect codingstyle guidelines.

    When you say "älso", it's often a good indicator there should be another 
patch -- like in this case.
