Yuya Kusakabe 87cd6b717e net: ipv6: keep room for the mac header in dst_dev_overhead()
The seg6, ioam6 and rpl lwtunnels size their skb_cow_head() request as
the length they are about to push plus dst_dev_overhead(), then push the
new headers and rebuild the mac header below them with
skb_mac_header_rebuild().  That rebuild needs skb->mac_len of headroom,
but dst_dev_overhead() leaves LL_RESERVED_SPACE() of the egress device,
16 bytes for plain Ethernet.

Where the mac header is longer than that, as it is on ingress through a
VLAN device with reorder_hdr off, the rebuild runs out of room:
skb_set_mac_header(skb, -skb->mac_len) computes a negative offset,
stores it unchecked in the u16 skb->mac_header, and the memmove that
follows writes skb->mac_len bytes about 64 KB past skb->head.
Forwarding plain ping6 traffic through such a device reproduces it on
all five seg6 encapsulation modes and on the rpl and ioam6 inline paths;
skb->mac_header comes back as 65534 on a 704-byte head.

Return the larger of the two.  The helper already returns skb->mac_len
when it has no dst, so this only makes the other branch agree, and it
covers every caller rather than each call site in turn.
