[PATCH 3.8 070/121] net: ipv6: send pkttoobig immediately if orig frag size > mtu

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.8.13.24 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 418a31561d594a2b636c1e2fa94ecd9e1245abb1 ]

If conntrack defragments incoming ipv6 frags it stores largest original
frag size in ip6cb and sets ->local_df.

We must thus first test the largest original frag size vs. mtu, and not
vice versa.

Without this patch PKTTOOBIG is still generated in ip6_fragment() later
in the stack, but

1) IPSTATS_MIB_INTOOBIGERRORS won't increment
2) packet did (needlessly) traverse netfilter postrouting hook.

Fixes: fe6cc55f3a9 ("net: ip, ipv6: handle gso skbs in forwarding path")
