SubjectPROBLEM: IPv6 TCP-Connections resetting
Hi,

[1.] One line summary of the problem:

IPv6 TCP-Connections resetting

[2.] Full description of the problem/report:

In the last weeks we updated some of our systems to a 3.8.4 Kernel.
Since then sometimes we can't connect to services running IPv6,
Apache and Openssh tested.

We got this on different machines with x86 and x86_64 Kernels. On
x86_64 it is more random, but on x86 i can reproduce it permanently
(Just opening any TCP Connection 1st time or after some short delay).
Connecting quick after the reset again will work as expected. It will
also work, if you keep another connection open.

Before I got to the Kernel, I just kept an strace on an userspace
process, but it did not notice the connection attempt. After this I
monitored the connection with tcpdump, but nothing unusual.

Then I did a rollback to the older Kernel and it worked as expected.

I tracked it down with 'git bisect' to commit:

093d04d42fa094f6740bb188f0ad0c215ff61e2c

I also tested latest git state available.

[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel):

networking, IPv6

[4.] Kernel information
[4.1.] Kernel version (from /proc/version):

since commit: 093d04d42fa094f6740bb188f0ad0c215ff61e2c

[4.2.] Kernel .config file:
[5.] Most recent kernel version which did not have the bug:

none

[6.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information
resolved (see Documentation/oops-tracing.txt)
[7.] A small shell script or example program which triggers the
problem (if possible)
[8.] Environment
[8.1.] Software (add the output of the ver_linux script here)

Different systems, mostly reproduced on this one:
