Commit 2bec5a369e (ipv6: fib: fix crash when changing large fib

but failed to skip correctly a count of already dumped entries. Code
didn't match Patrick intent.
We must skip exactly the number of already dumped entries.
Note that like other /proc/net files or netlink producers, we could
still dump some duplicates entries.

Since commit ad0081e43a
"ipv6: Fragment locally generated tunnel-mode IPSec6 packets as needed"
the fragment of packets is incorrect.
because tunnel mode needs IPsec headers and trailer for all fragments,
while on transport mode it is sufficient to add the headers to the
first fragment and the trailer to the last.
so modify mtu and maxfraglen base on ipsec mode and if fragment is first
or last.
with my test,it work well(every fragment's size is the mtu)
and does not trigger slow fragment path.
Changes from v1:
though optimization, mtu_prev and maxfraglen_prev can be delete.

If the allfrag feature has been set on a host route (due to an ICMPv6
Packet Too Big received indicating a MTU of less than 1280), we hit a
very slow behavior in TCP stack, because all big packets are dropped and
only a retransmit timer is able to push one MSS frame every 200 ms.
One way to handle this is to disable GSO on the socket the first time a
super packet is dropped. Adding a specific dst_allfrag() in the fast
path is probably overkill since the dst_allfrag() case almost never
happen.

Quoting Tore Anderson from :
If the allfrag feature has been set on a host route (due to an ICMPv6
Packet Too Big received indicating a MTU of less than 1280),
TCP SYN/ACK packets to that destination appears to get an incorrect
TCP checksum. This in turn means they are thrown away as invalid.
In the case of an IPv4 client behind a link with a MTU of less than
1260, accessing an IPv6 server through a stateless translator,
this means that the client can only download a single large file
from the server, because once it is in the server's routing cache
with the allfrag feature set, new TCP connections can no longer
be established.

It appears ip6_fragment() doesn't handle CHECKSUM_PARTIAL properly.
As network drivers are not prepared to fetch correct transport header, a
safe fix is to call skb_checksum_help() before fragmenting packet.

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42572
When RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is set on a route, the effective TCP segment
size does not take into account the size of the IPv6 Fragmentation
header that needs to be included in outbound packets, causing every
transmitted TCP segment to be fragmented across two IPv6 packets, the
latter of which will only contain 8 bytes of actual payload.
RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is typically set on a route in response to
receving a ICMPv6 Packet Too Big message indicating a Path MTU of less
than 1280 bytes. 1280 bytes is the minimum IPv6 MTU, however ICMPv6
PTBs with MTU < 1280 are still valid, in particular when an IPv6
packet is sent to an IPv4 destination through a stateless translator.
Any ICMPv4 Need To Fragment packets originated from the IPv4 part of
the path will be translated to ICMPv6 PTB which may then indicate an
MTU of less than 1280.
The Linux kernel refuses to reduce the effective MTU to anything below
1280 bytes, instead it sets it to exactly 1280 bytes, and
RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is also set. However, the TCP segment size appears
to be set to 1240 bytes (1280 Path MTU - 40 bytes of IPv6 header),
instead of 1232 (additionally taking into account the 8 bytes required
by the IPv6 Fragmentation extension header).
This in turn results in rather inefficient transmission, as every
transmitted TCP segment now is split in two fragments containing
1232+8 bytes of payload.
After this patch, all the outgoing packets that includes a
Fragmentation header all are "atomic" or "non-fragmented" fragments,
i.e., they both have Offset=0 and More Fragments=0.

While investigating TCP performance problems on 10Gb+ links, we found a
tcp sender was dropping lot of incoming ACKS because of sk_rcvbuf limit
in sk_add_backlog(), especially if receiver doesnt use GRO/LRO and sends
one ACK every two MSS segments.
A sender usually tweaks sk_sndbuf, but sk_rcvbuf stays at its default
value (87380), allowing a too small backlog.
A TCP ACK, even being small, can consume nearly same truesize space than
outgoing packets. Using sk_rcvbuf + sk_sndbuf as a limit makes sense and
is fast to compute.
Performance results on netperf, single flow, receiver with disabled
GRO/LRO : 7500 Mbits instead of 6050 Mbits, no more TCPBacklogDrop

This commit moves the (substantial) common code shared between
tcp_v4_init_sock() and tcp_v6_init_sock() to a new address-family
independent function, tcp_init_sock().
Centralizing this functionality should help avoid drift issues,
e.g. where the IPv4 side is updated without a corresponding update to
IPv6. There was already some drift: IPv4 initialized snd_cwnd to
TCP_INIT_CWND, while the IPv6 side was still initializing snd_cwnd to
2 (in this case it should not matter, since snd_cwnd is also
initialized in tcp_init_metrics(), but the general risks and
maintenance overhead remain).
When diffing the old and new code, note that new tcp_init_sock()
function uses the order of steps from the tcp_v4_init_sock()
implementation (the order is slightly different in
tcp_v6_init_sock()).
