Can you help me understand the rationale for this change? Is there are bug introduced by dsfield = ip6_tclass(key->label); ?

The RT_TOS masks out 4bits of the 8bit tos field in accordance with RFC1349 (obsoleted by RFC2474). IPv6 does not have a TOS field. So it dosen't make sense to apply a TOS value to the outer header of an IPv6 tunnel.
