[ Upstream commit 4ff2980b6bd2aa6b4ded3ce3b7c0ccfab29980af ]

in tunnel mode, if outer interface(ipv4) is less, it is easily to let
inner IPV6 mtu be less than 1280. If so, a Packet Too Big ICMPV6 message
is received. When send again, packets are fragmentized with 1280, they
are still rejected with ICMPV6(Packet Too Big) by xfrmi_xmit2().

According to RFC4213 Section3.2.2:
if (IPv4 path MTU - 20) is less than 1280
	if packet is larger than 1280 bytes
		Send ICMPv6 "packet too big" with MTU=1280
                Drop packet
        else
		Encapsulate but do not set the Don't Fragment
                flag in the IPv4 header.  The resulting IPv4
                packet might be fragmented by the IPv4 layer
                on the encapsulator or by some router along
                the IPv4 path.
	endif
else
	if packet is larger than (IPv4 path MTU - 20)
        	Send ICMPv6 "packet too big" with
                MTU = (IPv4 path MTU - 20).
                Drop packet.
        else
                Encapsulate and set the Don't Fragment flag
                in the IPv4 header.
        endif
endif
Packets should be fragmentized with ipv4 outer interface, so change it.

After it is fragemtized with ipv4, there will be double fragmenation.
No.48 & No.51 are ipv6 fragment packets, No.48 is double fragmentized,
then tunneled with IPv4(No.49& No.50), which obey spec. And received peer
cannot decrypt it rightly.

48              2002::10        2002::11 1296(length) IPv6 fragment (off=0 more=y ident=0xa20da5bc nxt=50)
49   0x0000 (0) 2002::10        2002::11 1304         IPv6 fragment (off=0 more=y ident=0x7448042c nxt=44)
50   0x0000 (0) 2002::10        2002::11 200          ESP (SPI=0x00035000)
51              2002::10        2002::11 180          Echo (ping) request
52   0x56dc     2002::10        2002::11 248          IPv6 fragment (off=1232 more=n ident=0xa20da5bc nxt=50)

xfrm6_noneed_fragment has fixed above issues. Finally, it acted like below:
1   0x6206 192.168.1.138   192.168.1.1 1316 Fragmented IP protocol (proto=Encap Security Payload 50, off=0, ID=6206) [Reassembled in #2]
2   0x6206 2002::10        2002::11    88   IPv6 fragment (off=0 more=y ident=0x1f440778 nxt=50)
3   0x0000 2002::10        2002::11    248  ICMPv6    Echo (ping) request
