I know. I cannot test 4.4 (or net-next) on that router, though, as I don't 
have easy physical access to it if it crashes or I loose network connectivity. 
For such tests I must send someone in situ.

As 4.4 will be the next longterm kernel I definitivly will do that for 4.4-rc2 
or 4.4-rc3.

I think your patch is correct for 4.1 in the sense that ISATAP is correctly 
handled. Only SIT in GRE triggers this and if it is indeed igb I will see it 
probably in 4.4 ;-), too.

I now tested an unmodified 4.1.12 and it shows no problems.
