Eric Dumazet b9b312a7a4 ipv6: mcast: better catch silly mtu values
syzkaller reported crashes in IPv6 stack [1]

Xin Long found that lo MTU was set to silly values.

IPv6 stack reacts to changes to small MTU, by disabling itself under
RTNL.

But there is a window where threads not using RTNL can see a wrong
device mtu. This can lead to surprises, in mld code where it is assumed
the mtu is suitable.

Fix this by reading device mtu once and checking IPv6 minimal MTU.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
