ipv6 seems to be still broken in the latest net-next
when CONFIG_LWTUNNEL is not set:
# ping 127.0.0.1
ping: socket: Address family not supported by protocol
# ping -4 127.0.0.1
PING localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.067 ms

it works with CONFIG_LWTUNNEL=y

Roopa, David, please take a look.

Thanks!
