The commit 6b1e960fdbd75dcd9bcc3ba5ff8898ff1ad30b6e
    bridge: Reset IPCB when entering IP stack on NF_FORWARD
broke forwarding of IPV6 packets in bridge because it would
call bp_parse_ip_options with an IPV6 packet.

Patch against net-next-2.6 but must be applied to net-2.6
and stable as well

Well, stable is not needed, since faulty commit is not in 2.6.38

Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet <redacted>

I do need to queue it up for -stable because the faulty commit is
also queued up there :-)

The faulty commit was in 2.6.38.4
