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