Therefore I'm inclined to agree with Herbert that we need to parse the
options explicitly before invoke ip_fragment().  We must call it with
an SKB in the state it expects, and that means with options parsing
already performed.
FWIW the packet probably doesn't even have IP options.  What is
happening here is that we've found yet another entry point from
the bridge driver into the IP stack so we need to duplicate my
original patch here.

Thanks,
