We assume that transhdrlen is positive on the first fragment
which is wrong for raw packets. So we don't add exthdrlen to the
packet size for raw packets. This leads to a reallocation on IPsec
because we have not enough headroom on the skb to place the IPsec
headers. This patch fixes this by adding exthdrlen to the packet
size whenever the send queue of the socket is empty. This issue was
introduced with git commit 1470ddf7 (inet: Remove explicit write
references to sk/inet in ip_append_data)

commit 2c8cec5c10bc (ipv4: Cache learned PMTU information in inetpeer)
added some racy peer-&gt;pmtu_expires accesses.

As its value can be changed by another cpu/thread, we should be more
careful, reading its value once.

Add peer_pmtu_expired() and peer_pmtu_cleaned() helpers

<id>88ed01d17b44bc2bed4ad4835d3b1099bff3dd71</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch fixes a refcount leak of ct objects that may occur if
l4proto-&gt;error() assigns one conntrack object to one skbuff. In
that case, we have to skip further processing in nf_conntrack_in().

With this patch, we can also fix wrong return values (-NF_ACCEPT)
for special cases in ICMP[v6] that should not bump the invalid/error
statistic counters.

Fix crash in nf_nat_csum when mangling packets
in OUTPUT hook where skb-&gt;dev is not defined, it is set
later before POSTROUTING. Problem happens for CHECKSUM_NONE.
We can check device from rt but using CHECKSUM_PARTIAL
should be safe (skb_checksum_help).

The current code takes an unaligned pointer and does htonl() on it to
make it big-endian, then does a memcpy().  The problem is that the
compiler decides that since the pointer is to a __be32, it is legal
to optimize the copy into a processor word store.  However, on an
architecture that does not handled unaligned writes in kernel space,
this produces an unaligned exception fault.

The solution is to track the pointer as a "char *" (which removes a bunch
of unpleasant casts in any case), and then just use put_unaligned_be32()
to write the value to memory.
