xfrm6_output_finish unconditionally resets skb->protocol so we try to
dispatch to the IPv6 handler, even though tcp just sends an IPv4 packet.

Maybe we better dispatch based on sk->sk_family, this should give
always the right address family of the socket.

The original problem was dealing with IPv4/v6 mapped traffic. Processing
local errors from unconnected UDP sockets which are emitting both IPv4
and IPv6 frames won't play nicely with sk->sk_family I fear.

Good point, unfortunately it is not so easy to fix as I thought.
