Subject: [PATCH v2 net] net/ipv4: defensive cipso option parsing

commit 40413955ee26 ("Cipso: cipso_v4_optptr enter infinite loop") fixed
a possible infinite loop in the IP option parsing of CIPSO. The fix
assumes that ip_options_compile filtered out all zero length options and
that no other one-byte options beside IPOPT_END and IPOPT_NOOP exist.
While this assumption currently holds true, add explicit checks for zero
length and invalid length options to be safe for the future. Even though
ip_options_compile should have validated the options, the introduction of
new one-byte options can still confuse this code without the additional
checks.
