About those bind() patches, I don't understand why they are needed.
Why can't you just add the compat skb to the native skb when doing
the multicast call?
skb_shinfo(skb)->frag_list = compat_skb;
xfrm_nlmsg_multicast(net, skb, 0, ...
Oh yeah, sorry, I think I misread the patch - will try to add compat
skb in the multicast call.
