    openvswitch: Remove padding from packet before L3+ conntrack processing

    IPv4 and IPv6 packets may arrive with lower-layer padding that is not
    included in the L3 length. For example, a short IPv4 packet may have
    up to 6 bytes of padding following the IP payload when received on an
    Ethernet device with a minimum packet length of 64 bytes.

    Higher-layer processing functions in netfilter (e.g. nf_ip_checksum(),
    and help() in nf_conntrack_ftp) assume skb->len reflects the length of
    the L3 header and payload, rather than referring back to
    ip_hdr->tot_len or ipv6_hdr->payload_len, and get confused by
    lower-layer padding.

    In the normal IPv4 receive path, ip_rcv() trims the packet to
    ip_hdr->tot_len before invoking netfilter hooks. In the IPv6 receive
    path, ip6_rcv() does the same using ipv6_hdr->payload_len. Similarly
    in the br_netfilter receive path, br_validate_ipv4() and
    br_validate_ipv6() trim the packet to the L3 length before invoking
    netfilter hooks.

    Currently in the OVS conntrack receive path, ovs_ct_execute() pulls
    the skb to the L3 header but does not trim it to the L3 length before
    calling nf_conntrack_in(NF_INET_PRE_ROUTING). When
    nf_conntrack_proto_tcp encounters a packet with lower-layer padding,
    nf_ip_checksum() fails causing a "nf_ct_tcp: bad TCP checksum" log
    message. While extra zero bytes don't affect the checksum, the length
    in the IP pseudoheader does. That length is based on skb->len, and
    without trimming, it doesn't match the length the sender used when
    computing the checksum.

    In ovs_ct_execute(), trim the skb to the L3 length before higher-layer
    processing.
