[IPV6]: Fix IPsec datagram fragmentation
This is a long-standing bug in the IPsec IPv6 code that breaks when we emit a IPsec tunnel-mode datagram packet. The problem is that the code the emits the packet assumes the IPv6 stack will fragment it later, but the IPv6 stack assumes that whoever is emitting the packet is going to pre-fragment the packet. In the long term we need to fix both sides, e.g., to get the datagram code to pre-fragment as well as to get the IPv6 stack to fragment locally generated tunnel-mode packet. For now this patch does the second part which should make it work for the IPsec host case. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
