  25  * Skip any extension headers. This is used by the ICMP module.
  26  *
  27  * Note that strictly speaking this conflicts with RFC 2460 4.0:
  28  * ...The contents and semantics of each extension header determine whether
  29  * or not to proceed to the next header.  Therefore, extension headers must
  30  * be processed strictly in the order they appear in the packet; a
  31  * receiver must not, for example, scan through a packet looking for a
  32  * particular kind of extension header and process that header prior to
  33  * processing all preceding ones.
  34  *
  35  * We do exactly this. This is a protocol bug. We can't decide after a
  36  * seeing an unknown discard-with-error flavour TLV option if it's a
  37  * ICMP error message or not (errors should never be send in reply to
  38  * ICMP error messages).
  39  *
  40  * But I see no other way to do this. This might need to be reexamined
  41  * when Linux implements ESP (and maybe AUTH) headers.
  42  * --AK
  43  *
  44  * This function parses (probably truncated) exthdr set "hdr".
  45  * "nexthdrp" initially points to some place,
  46  * where type of the first header can be found.
  47  *
  48  * It skips all well-known exthdrs, and returns pointer to the start
  49  * of unparsable area i.e. the first header with unknown type.
  50  * If it is not NULL *nexthdr is updated by type/protocol of this header.
  51  *
  52  * NOTES: - if packet terminated with NEXTHDR_NONE it returns NULL.
  53  *        - it may return pointer pointing beyond end of packet,
  54  *          if the last recognized header is truncated in the middle.
  55  *        - if packet is truncated, so that all parsed headers are skipped,
  56  *          it returns NULL.
  57  *        - First fragment header is skipped, not-first ones
  58  *          are considered as unparsable.
  59  *        - ESP is unparsable for now and considered like
  60  *          normal payload protocol.
  61  *        - Note also special handling of AUTH header. Thanks to IPsec wizards.
