Patrick McHardy notes: "We used to invoke IPv4 POST_ROUTING after
fragmentation as well just to defragment the packets in conntrack
immediately afterwards, but that got changed during the
netfilter-ipsec integration. Ideally IPv6 would behave like IPv4."

This patch makes it so. Sending an oversized frame (e.g. `ping6
-s64000 -c1 ::1`) will now show up in POSTROUTING as a single skb
rather than multiple ones.

Looks good to me. I'll wait until next week in case anyone
else has comments on this patch.
