Subject: [PATCH 4.19 137/421] netfilter: nft_exthdr: check for IPv6 packet before further processing

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@...filter.org>

[ Upstream commit cdd73cc545c0fb9b1a1f7b209f4f536e7990cff4 ]

ipv6_find_hdr() does not validate that this is an IPv6 packet. Add a
sanity check for calling ipv6_find_hdr() to make sure an IPv6 packet
is passed for parsing.

Fixes: 96518518cc41 ("netfilter: add nftables")
