There is a miss-match between the handling of invalid ICMPv6 fields in the implementations of parse_icmpv6() in user-space and in the kernel datapath. This patch addresses that by modifying the user-space implementation to match that of the kernel datapath; processing is terminated without rather than with an error and partial information is cleared. With these changes the user-space implementation of parse_icmpv6() never returns an error. Accordingly the return type and caller have been updated. The original motivation for this is to allow matching the ICMPv6 type and code of packets with invalid neighbour discovery options although only the change around the '(!opt_len || opt_len > *sizep)' conditional is necessary to achieve that goal.
