>
> launching ipsec-segw application in event vector mode
> after traffic has started results in segfault because
> we are receiving few IPSEC packet and application is trying
> to decrypt IPSEC packets using lookaside protocol.
> This contradicts inline event mode.This patch fixes the same
> by freeing IPSEC packets and processing only plain packets.
