[PATCH net v2] ipv4, ipv6: Fix handling of transhdrlen in __ip{,6}_append_data()

Including the transhdrlen in length is a problem when the packet is
partially filled (e.g. something like send(MSG_MORE) happened previously)
when appending to an IPv4 or IPv6 packet as we don't want to repeat the
transport header or account for it twice. This can happen under some
circumstances, such as splicing into an L2TP socket.

The symptom observed is a warning in __ip6_append_data():

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 5042 at net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:1800 __ip6_append_data.isra.0+0x1be8/0x47f0 net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:1800

that occurs when MSG_SPLICE_PAGES is used to append more data to an already
partially occupied skbuff. The warning occurs when 'copy' is larger than
the amount of data in the message iterator. This is because the requested
length includes the transport header length when it shouldn't. This can be
triggered by, for example:

sfd = socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_L2TP);
bind(sfd, ...); // ::1
connect(sfd, ...); // ::1 port 7
send(sfd, buffer, 4100, MSG_MORE);
sendfile(sfd, dfd, NULL, 1024);

Fix this by deducting transhdrlen from length in ip{,6}_append_data() right
before we clear transhdrlen if there is already a packet that we're going
to try appending to.
