Stefano Brivio d4d576f5ab ip6_tunnel: Fix encapsulation layout
Commit 058214a4d1 ("ip6_tun: Add infrastructure for doing
encapsulation") added the ip6_tnl_encap() call in ip6_tnl_xmit(), before
the call to ipv6_push_frag_opts() to append the IPv6 Tunnel Encapsulation
Limit option (option 4, RFC 2473, par. 5.1) to the outer IPv6 header.

As long as the option didn't actually end up in generated packets, this
wasn't an issue. Then commit 89a23c8b52 ("ip6_tunnel: Fix missing tunnel
encapsulation limit option") fixed sending of this option, and the
resulting layout, e.g. for FoU, is:

.-------------------.------------.----------.-------------------.----- - -
| Outer IPv6 Header | UDP header | Option 4 | Inner IPv6 Header | Payload
'-------------------'------------'----------'-------------------'----- - -

Needless to say, FoU and GUE (at least) won't work over IPv6. The option
is appended by default, and I couldn't find a way to disable it with the
current iproute2.

Turn this into a more reasonable:

.-------------------.----------.------------.-------------------.----- - -
| Outer IPv6 Header | Option 4 | UDP header | Inner IPv6 Header | Payload
'-------------------'----------'------------'-------------------'----- - -

With this, and with 84dad55951 ("udp6: fix encap return code for
resubmitting"), FoU and GUE work again over IPv6.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
