I am not asking you so support multiple UDP ports for IPsec encapsulation.
What I am saying: it should be possible to use SAs with UDP encapsulation
along with SAs without (plain tunnel/transport mode).
As I understand with your patch it is not possible: if user specified --udp-encap
all SAs (on all crypto-devs) will be treated as UDP encapsulated.
