Xin Long b2f8476193 xfrm: BEET mode doesn't support fragments for inner packets
[ Upstream commit 68dc022d04eb0fd60a540e242dcb11ec1bee07e2 ]

BEET mode replaces the IP(6) Headers with new IP(6) Headers when sending
packets. However, when it's a fragment before the replacement, currently
kernel keeps the fragment flag and replace the address field then encaps
it with ESP. It would cause in RX side the fragments to get reassembled
before decapping with ESP, which is incorrect.

In Xiumei's testing, these fragments went over an xfrm interface and got
encapped with ESP in the device driver, and the traffic was broken.

I don't have a good way to fix it, but only to warn this out in dmesg.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
