Subject: [PATCH 3.16 133/134] ipv6: Should use consistent conditional
 judgement for ip6 fragment  between __ip6_append_data and ip6_finish_output

3.16.47-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Zheng Li <james.z.li@...csson.com>

commit e4c5e13aa45c23692e4acf56f0b3533f328199b2 upstream.

There is an inconsistent conditional judgement between __ip6_append_data
and ip6_finish_output functions, the variable length in __ip6_append_data
just include the length of application's payload and udp6 header, don't
include the length of ipv6 header, but in ip6_finish_output use
(skb->len > ip6_skb_dst_mtu(skb)) as judgement, and skb->len include the
length of ipv6 header.

That causes some particular application's udp6 payloads whose length are
between (MTU - IPv6 Header) and MTU were fragmented by ip6_fragment even
though the rst->dev support UFO feature.

Add the length of ipv6 header to length in __ip6_append_data to keep
consistent conditional judgement as ip6_finish_output for ip6 fragment.
