ipv6: fix NULL dereference in udp6_ufo_fragment()
This patch fixes the issue caused by ef81bb40bf15f350fe865f31fa42f1082772a576 which is a backport of upstream 87c48fa3b4630905f98268dde838ee43626a060c. The problem does not exist in upstream. We do not check whether route is attached before trying to assign ip identification through route dest which lead NULL pointer dereference. This happens when host bridge transmit a packet from guest. This patch changes ipv6_select_ident() to accept in6_addr as its paramter and fix the issue by using the destination address in ipv6 header when no route is attached.
