We need a similar fix for ipv6 as Commit 0761680d5215 ("net: ipv4: fix
listify ip_rcv_finish in case of forwarding") does for ipv4.

This issue can be reprocuded by syzbot since Commit 323ebb61e32b ("net:
use listified RX for handling GRO_NORMAL skbs") on net-next. The call
trace was:

Applied, thanks.
Just noticed that this only went to net-next (and 5.4-rc1), when actually
 it's needed on all kernels back to 4.19 (per the first Fixes: tag).  The
 second Fixes: reference, 323ebb61e32b, merely enables syzbot to hit it on
 whatever hardware it has, but the bug was already there, and hittable on
 sfc NICs.
David, can this go to stable please?
Hi, did this get missed or was my request improper in some way?
Our testing has been hitting this issue on distro kernels (Fedora, Debian,
 Ubuntu), we'd like the fix to get everywhere it's needed and AIUI -stable
 is the proper route for that.
For reference, the fix was committed as c7a42eb49212.
