First problem is that optlen is fetched without checking
there is more than one byte to parse.

Fix this by taking care of IPV6_TLV_PAD1 before
fetching optlen (under appropriate sanity checks against len)

Second problem is that IPV6_TLV_PADN checks of zero
padding are performed before the check of remaining length.

Fixes: c1412fce7ecc ("net/ipv6/exthdrs.c: Strict PadN option checking")
Perhaps even:

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")

for the first issue?

It looks like the above assignment is not needed anymore.

Other than that LGTM,

Thanks!
