Yep.  I missed

        if (skb_cow(skb, dst->dev->hard_header_len)) {

call in ip6_forward().

Problem is of course that we only expand headroom of the skb
and not of the fragment(s) stored in that skbs frag list.

So we have several options for a fix.

- expand headroom in ip6_finish_output2, like we do for ipv4
- expand headroom in ip6_fragment
- defer to slowpath if frags don't have enough headroom.

The latter is the smallest patch and would not add test for locally
generated, non-fragmented skbs.

(not even compile tested)
David, could you test this?  I'd do an official patch submission then.
