[PATCH v3 -next] ip: reject too-big defragmented DF-skb when forwarding

[PATCH v3 -next] ip: reject too-big defragmented DF-skb when forwarding

[Florian Westphal]

Send icmp pmtu error if we find that the largest fragment of df-skb
exceeded the output path mtu.

The ip output path will still catch this later on but we can avoid the
forward/postrouting hook traversal by rejecting right away.

This is what ipv6 already does.

 No changes since v2; I moved the patch out of set defrag set
 since its independent.

Applied, thank you.
