1. Only parse options if ihl > 5.
2. Please audit the IP stack to ensure that this does not mangle
the packet.  We should not write to the packet here.
3. Please check whether SRR is handled correctly (see ip_rcv_options).

This should go into a helper function as this isn't the only entry
point from the bridge into the IP stack.

Also it may be worth considering whether we should replace
ip_fragment here with something that only refragments a frag_list
since the only time we want to fragment here is if we reassembled
an IP datagram due to netfilter.

Thanks,
