Subject: net/ipv6: Fix CALIPSO causing GPF with datagram support
From: Richard Haines <richard_c_haines@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit e3ebdb20fddacded2740a333ff66781e0d28b05c ]
When using CALIPSO with IPPROTO_UDP it is possible to trigger a GPF as the
IP header may have moved.
Also update the payload length after adding the CALIPSO option.
