xfrm_xlate32() translates 64-bit message provided by kernel to be sent for 32-bit listener (acknowledge or monitor). Translator code doesn't expect XFRMA_UNSPEC attribute as it doesn't know its payload. Kernel never attaches such attribute, but a user can. I've searched if any opensource does it and the answer is no. Nothing on github and google finds only tfcproject that has such code commented-out. What will happen if a user sends a netlink message with XFRMA_UNSPEC attribute? Ipsec code ignores this attribute. But if there is a monitor-process or 32-bit user requested ack - kernel will try to translate such message and will hit WARN_ONCE() in xfrm_xlate64_attr(). Deal with XFRMA_UNSPEC by copying the attribute payload with xfrm_nla_cpy(). In result, the default switch-case in xfrm_xlate64_attr() becomes an unused code. Leave those 3 lines in case a new xfrm attribute will be added.
