Hello Kimmo,

To update IP addresses in the Linux kernel SA state, we have to
reinstall the whole SA. This resets the ESP sequence numbers. To make
things work, we update the SA sequence number after this process.

The major changes to query and update sequence numbers have been
introduced with Linux 2.6.17. I don't know why it doesn't work with
2.6.18, possible that there are some bugs.

To get MOBIKE working, I'd recommend to switch to a newer kernel.

Regards
Martin
