Sabrina Dubroca b515d26372 xfrm: xfrm_state_mtu should return at least 1280 for ipv6 
Jianwen reported that IPv6 Interoperability tests are failing in an
IPsec case where one of the links between the IPsec peers has an MTU
of 1280. The peer generates a packet larger than this MTU, the router
replies with a "Packet too big" message indicating an MTU of 1280.
When the peer tries to send another large packet, xfrm_state_mtu
returns 1280 - ipsec_overhead, which causes ip6_setup_cork to fail
with EINVAL.

We can fix this by forcing xfrm_state_mtu to return IPV6_MIN_MTU when
IPv6 is used. After going through IPsec, the packet will then be
fragmented to obey the actual network's PMTU, just before leaving the
host.

Currently, TFC padding is capped to PMTU - overhead to avoid
fragementation: after padding and encapsulation, we still fit within
the PMTU. That behavior is preserved in this patch.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
