Subject: [PATCH 3.13.y-ckt 40/43] ipv6: re-enable fragment header matching in ipv6_find_hdr

3.13.11-ckt37 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de>

commit 5d150a985520bbe3cb2aa1ceef24a7e32f20c15f upstream.

When ipv6_find_hdr is used to find a fragment header
(caller specifies target NEXTHDR_FRAGMENT) we erronously return
-ENOENT for all fragments with nonzero offset.

Before commit 9195bb8e381d, when target was specified, we did not
enter the exthdr walk loop as nexthdr == target so this used to work.

Now we do (so we can skip empty route headers). When we then stumble upon
a frag with nonzero frag_off we must return -ENOENT ("header not found")
only if the caller did not specifically request NEXTHDR_FRAGMENT.

This allows nfables exthdr expression to match ipv6 fragments, e.g. via

nft add rule ip6 filter input frag frag-off gt 0

Fixes: 9195bb8e381d ("ipv6: improve ipv6_find_hdr() to skip empty routing headers")
