Sure.  I tried that and it looks OK.  

The truth is that I don't understand this code very well.  I'm just writing
patches based on static analysis.  Here is the output from window1:

$ sudo ip xfrm mon
src 172.16.2.0/24 dst 172.16.1.0/24 
	dir fwd priority 0 
	tmpl src 192.168.2.100 dst 192.168.1.100
		proto esp reqid 0 mode tunnel
Deleted src 172.16.2.0/24 dst 172.16.1.0/24 
	dir fwd priority 0 
	tmpl src 192.168.2.100 dst 192.168.1.100
		proto esp reqid 0 mode tunnel

There aren't any messages in dmesg either.

regards,
dan carpenter
