Peter Oskolkov 0ff89efb52 ip: fail fast on IP defrag errors
The current behavior of IP defragmentation is inconsistent:
- some overlapping/wrong length fragments are dropped without
  affecting the queue;
- most overlapping fragments cause the whole frag queue to be dropped.

This patch brings consistency: if a bad fragment is detected,
the whole frag queue is dropped. Two major benefits:
- fail fast: corrupted frag queues are cleared immediately, instead of
  by timeout;
- testing of overlapping fragments is now much easier: any kind of
  random fragment length mutation now leads to the frag queue being
  discarded (IP packet dropped); before this patch, some overlaps were
  "corrected", with tests not seeing expected packet drops.

Note that in one case (see "if (end&7)" conditional) the current
behavior is preserved as there are concerns that this could be
legitimate padding.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
