Sure, here it is by itself.  I lightly tested this but didn't actually
use anything that has a non-zero trailer len, I don't think.

Did you have an opinion of the rest of the original patch?

[PATCH] ip_output: account for fraggap when checking to add trailer_len

During other work I noticed that ip_append_data() seemed to be forgetting to
include the frag gap in its calculation of a fragment that consumes the rest of
the payload.  Herbert confirmed that this was a bug that snuck in during a
previous rework.
