It seems that tunnel.ip6 can have garbage values and also dereferenced
without a proper check, only tunnel.ip4 is being verified. Fix it by
adding one more if block for AF_INET6 and initialize tunnel.ip6 with NULL
inside xfrm6_rcv_spi() (which is similar to xfrm4_rcv_spi()).

Applied to the ipsec tree, thanks a lot for the fix!
