When setup a vlan device on dev pim6reg, DAD ns packet may sent on reg_vif_xmit().
reg_vif_xmit()
ip6mr_cache_report()
skb_push(skb, -skb_network_offset(pkt));//skb_network_offset(pkt) is 4
And skb_push declared as:
void *skb_push(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned int len);
skb->data -= len;
//0xffff88805f86a84c – 0xfffffffc = 0xffff887f5f86a850
skb->data is set to 0xffff887f5f86a850, which is invalid mem addr, lead to skb_push() fails.
