[PATCH 3.16 147/204] ip6_gre: only increase err_count for some certain type icmpv6 in ip6gre_err

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Dec 28 2017 - 12:47:54 EST


3.16.52-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx>

commit f8d20b46ce55cf40afb30dcef6d9288f7ef46d9b upstream.

The similar fix in patch 'ipip: only increase err_count for some
certain type icmp in ipip_err' is needed for ip6gre_err.

In Jianlin's case, udp netperf broke even when receiving a TooBig
icmpv6 packet.
