net: IP6 defrag: use rbtrees in nf_conntrack_reasm.c
[ Upstream commit 997dd96471641e147cb2c33ad54284000d0f5e35 ]
Currently, IPv6 defragmentation code drops non-last fragments that
are smaller than 1280 bytes: see
commit 0ed4229b08c1 ("ipv6: defrag: drop non-last frags smaller than min mtu")
This behavior is not specified in IPv6 RFCs and appears to break
compatibility with some IPv6 implemenations, as reported here:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg543846.html
This patch re-uses common IP defragmentation queueing and reassembly
code in IP6 defragmentation in nf_conntrack, removing the 1280 byte
restriction.
