[PATCH 2.6.21-stable] [IPV6]: Restore semantics of Routing Header processing.

["YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明" <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org>]

The "fix" for emerging security threats was overkill and it broke
basic semantic of IPv6 routing header processing.  We should assume
RT0 (or even RT2, depends on configuration) as "unknown" RH type so
that we
- silently ignore the routing header if segleft == 0
- or, send ICMPv6 Parameter Problem message back to the sender,
  otherwise.
