FTR, I don't think cd51b74bdd0b ("ipv6: Fix redirect exception creation
for UDP/RAW sockets") is what fixed the xfail (I never saw xfail, even
before my patch). It's more likely that it was fixed by commit
0e02bf5de46a ("selftests: icmp_redirect: IPv6 PMTU info should be
cleared after redirect"):

1. The redirect message quotes an echo request, so it's going through
icmpv6_err() which calls ip6_redirect() using the correct oif. It's
possible that rawv6_err() later called ip6_sk_redirect(), but by then
the exception was already present / populated.

Ah right,  I will send a V2 with an updated changelog, thanks!

Good, I will rebase my log_test() cleanup on your patch.

Thanks
