Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/4] ipv6: Update RFC references and implement ICMP errors for limits

This patch set contains:

- Resolve comment for ipv6_skip_exthdr that the function is
  non conformant with RFC2460. I requested and received an
  on the interpretation of the requirements on 6man list.
- Update references, in comments, of RFC2460 to be RFC8200.
  RFC8200 (aka IPv6) is now a full Internet standard.
- Add references to RFC8504 (updated node requirements) for
  extension header limits and limits on padding in Destination
  and Hop-by-Hop options.
- Send ICMP errors for exceeding extension header limits. These
  are specified in Internet Draft draft-ietf-6man-icmp-limits-02
  (that draft is in working group last call in IETF)
