4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f8d20b46ce55cf40afb30dcef6d9288f7ef46d9b ] The similar fix in patch 'ipip: only increase err_count for some certain type icmp in ipip_err' is needed for ip6gre_err. In Jianlin's case, udp netperf broke even when receiving a TooBig icmpv6 packet.
