[PATCH 2/3] netfilter: xt_TCPMSS: Fix IPv6 default MSS too

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
Date: 2013-06-17 19:34:52
Also in: netfilter-devel
Subsystem: netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds 

From: Phil Oester <redacted>

As a followup to commit 409b545a ("netfilter: xt_TCPMSS: Fix violation
of RFC879 in absence of MSS option"), John Heffner points out that IPv6
has a higher MTU than IPv4, and thus a higher minimum MSS. Update TCPMSS
target to account for this, and update RFC comment.

While at it, point to more recent reference RFC1122 instead of RFC879.
