Subject: xfrm6: Fix IPv6 payload_len in xfrm6_transport_finish

From: Yossi Kuperman <[email protected]>

commit 7c88e21aefcf86fb41b48b2e04528db5a30fbe18 upstream.

IPv6 payload length indicates the size of the payload, including any extension headers.

In xfrm6_transport_finish, ipv6_hdr(skb)->payload_len is set to the payload size only, regardless of the presence of any extension headers. After ESP GRO transport mode decapsulation, ipv6_rcv trims the packet according to the wrong payload_len, thus corrupting the packet.

Set payload_len to account for extension headers as well.
