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.
