[PATCH 2.6.16-stable] [IPV6]: Restore semantics of Routing Header processing.

2007-05-11 Thread YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明
The "fix" for emerging security threats was overkill and it broke basic semantic of IPv6 routing header processing. We should assume RT0 as "unknown" RH type so that we - silently ignore the routing header if segleft == 0 - or, send ICMPv6 Parameter Problem message back to the sender, otherwise.
