Subject: [PATCH] bridge: Pull ip header into skb->data before looking into ip
 header.

commit 6caab7b0544e83e6c160b5e80f5a4a7dd69545c7 upstream.

If lower layer driver leaves the ip header in the skb fragment, it needs to
be first pulled into skb->data before inspecting ip header length or ip version
number.
