2.6.38-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

[ Upstream commit 6b1e960fdbd75dcd9bcc3ba5ff8898ff1ad30b6e ]

Whenever we enter the IP stack proper from bridge netfilter we
need to ensure that the skb is in a form the IP stack expects
it to be in.

The entry point on NF_FORWARD did not meet the requirements of
the IP stack, therefore leading to potential crashes/panics.

This patch fixes the problem.
