So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
:-)
Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
meaningful as offsets or pointers.

For the places where we need a pointer to the transport header, it is
still legal to touch skb->h.raw directly if just adding to,
subtracting from or setting it to another layer header.

Now the skb->nh union has just one member, .raw, i.e. it is just like the
skb->mac union, strange, no? I'm just leaving it like that till the transport
layer is done with, when we'll rename skb->mac.raw to skb->mac_header (or
->mac_header_offset?), ditto for ->{h,nh}.

Add checksum default defines for mobility header(MH) which
goes through raw socket. As the result kernel's behavior is
to handle MH checksum as default.
This patch also removes verifying inbound MH checksum at
mip6_mh_filter() since it did not consider user specified
checksum offset and was redundant check with raw socket code.

Ignore to report user-space for known mobility headers rejected by
destination options header transformation.
Mobile IPv6 specification (RFC3775) says that mobility header
is used with destination options header carrying home address option
only for binding update message. Other type message cannot be used
and node must drop it silently (and must not send binding error) if
receving such packet.
To achieve it, (1) application should use transformation policy and
wild-card states to catch binding update message prior other packets
(2) kernel doesn't report the reject to user-space not to send
binding error message by application.
This patch is for (2).
Based on MIPL2 kernel patch.

Report to user-space when home address option is rejected.
In receiving this message user-space application will send Mobile IPv6 binding
error. It is rate-limited by kernel.

Like ICMPv6, mobility header is handled through raw socket.
In inbound case, check only whether ICMPv6 error should be sent as a reply
or not by kernel.
