Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] net/ipv4: push IP options to CB in ip_fragment

The bridge layer can overwrite the IPCB using the
BR_INPUT_SKB_CB macro. In br_nf_dev_queue_xmit, 
if we recieve a packet greater in size than the bridge 
device MTU, we call ip_fragment which in turn will lead to 
icmp_send calling ip_options_echo if the DF flag is set. 
ip_options_echo will then incorrectly try to parse the IPCB as 
IP options resulting in a buffer overflow. 
This change refills the CB area back with IP 
options before ip_fragment calls icmp_send. If we fail parsing, 
we zero out the IPCB area to guarantee that the stack does 
not get corrupted.

Test setup that can exhibit this behavior:
<Remote Machine>--<Host Machine>--<Bridge>--<Tun/Tap>--<KVM Guest>
  1500 mtu          576 mtu        576 mtu   576 mtu    1500 mtu

Example of crash :
Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: ffffffff8146dff3
Pid: 3173, comm: qemu-kvm Not tainted 2.6.32-63.el6.x86_64 #1
Call Trace:
Message from <IRQ>  syslogd@kvm at  [<ffffffff814c8285>] panic+0x78/0x137
Aug 30 14:09:50  [<ffffffff8146dff3>] ? icmp_send+0x743/0x780
