Eric Dumazet 83093a9e87 ipv4: IP defragmentation must be ECN aware
[ Upstream commit 6623e3b24a5ebb07e81648c478d286a1329ab891 ]

RFC3168 (The Addition of Explicit Congestion Notification to IP)
states :

5.3.  Fragmentation

   ECN-capable packets MAY have the DF (Don't Fragment) bit set.
   Reassembly of a fragmented packet MUST NOT lose indications of
   congestion.  In other words, if any fragment of an IP packet to be
   reassembled has the CE codepoint set, then one of two actions MUST be
   taken:

      * Set the CE codepoint on the reassembled packet.  However, this
        MUST NOT occur if any of the other fragments contributing to
        this reassembly carries the Not-ECT codepoint.

      * The packet is dropped, instead of being reassembled, for any
        other reason.

This patch implements this requirement for IPv4, choosing the first
action :

If one fragment had NO-ECT codepoint
        reassembled frame has NO-ECT
ElIf one fragment had CE codepoint
        reassembled frame has CE
