Sorry about that, it is still not ready to send out formally yet, because
I don't do any run-time tests yet.

Hmm? After my patch ip6_sk_update_pmtu() will take care of sk_dst_cache,
but ip6_update_pmtu() doesn't do that since it has no 'sk' parameter.
It is pretty much similar to commit 9cb3a50c5f63.

Ah, good catch, so ip6_dst_store() can only use the addr's stored
in socket or NULL.

I will send out 2 formal patches shortly.
