Subject: [PATCH 4.4 27/48] xfrm: allow to accept packets with ipv6 NEXTHDR_HOP in xfrm_input

From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@...il.com>

commit afcaf61be9d1dbdee5ec186d1dcc67b6b692180f upstream.

For beet mode, when it's ipv6 inner address with nexthdrs set,
the packet format might be:

    ----------------------------------------------------
    | outer  |     | dest |     |      |  ESP    | ESP |
    | IP hdr | ESP | opts.| TCP | Data | Trailer | ICV |
    ----------------------------------------------------

The nexthdr from ESP could be NEXTHDR_HOP(0), so it should
continue processing the packet when nexthdr returns 0 in
xfrm_input(). Otherwise, when ipv6 nexthdr is set, the
packet will be dropped.

I don't see any error cases that nexthdr may return 0. So
fix it by removing the check for nexthdr == 0.
