Peter Oskolkov 684685326a net: IP6 defrag: use rbtrees for IPv6 defrag ...

[ Upstream commit d4289fcc9b ]

Currently, IPv6 defragmentation code drops non-last fragments that
are smaller than 1280 bytes: see
commit 0ed4229b08 ("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 IPv6, removing the 1280 byte restriction.

v2: change handling of overlaps to match that of upstream.
