Another spin of Herbert Xu's "safer ip reassembly" patch
for 2.6.16.
(The original patch is here:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=112281936522415&w=2
and my only contribution is to have tested it.)
This patch (optionally) does additional checks before accepting IP
fragments, which can greatly reduce the possibility of reassembling
fragments which originated from different IP datagrams.

Both of ipq and frag_queue have *next and **prev, and they can be replaced
with hlist. Thanks Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo for the suggestion.

This was found by inspection while looking for checksum problems
with the skge driver that sets CHECKSUM_HW. It did not fix the
problem, but it looks like it is needed.
If IP reassembly is trimming an overlapping fragment, it
should reset (or adjust) the hardware checksum flag on the skb.

Here's a small patch to cleanup NETDEBUG() use in net/ipv4/ for Linux
kernel 2.6.13-rc5. Also weird use of indentation is changed in some
places.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
