It looks like the bridge netfilter code does not correctly update
the hardware checksum after popping off the VLAN header.
This is by inspection, I have *not* tested this.
To test you would need to set up a filtering bridge with vlans
and a device the does hardware receive checksum (skge, or sungem)

To help in reducing the number of include dependencies, several files were
touched as they were getting needed headers indirectly for stuff they use.
Thanks also to Alan Menegotto for pointing out that net/dccp/proto.c had
linux/dccp.h include twice.

Call nf_bridge_put() before allocating a new nf_bridge structure and
potentially overwriting the pointer to a previously allocated one.
This fixes a memory leak which can occur when the bridge topology
allows for an skb to traverse more than one bridge.

A typo caused some bridged IPv6 packets to get dropped randomly,
as reported by Sebastien Chaumontet. The patch below fixes this
(using skb->nh.raw instead of raw) and also makes the jumbo packet
length checking up-to-date with the code in
net/ipv6/exthdrs.c::ipv6_hop_jumbo.

Here's a slightly altered patch, originally from Mark Glines who
diagnosed and fixed the problem.

In 2.6.12 we started dropping the conntrack reference when a packet
leaves the IP layer. This broke connection tracking on a bridge,
because bridge-netfilter defers calling some NF_IP_* hooks to the bridge
layer for locally generated packets going out a bridge, where the
conntrack reference is no longer available. This patch keeps the
reference in this case as a temporary solution, long term we will
remove the defered hook calling. No attempt is made to drop the
reference in the bridge-code when it is no longer needed, tc actions
could already have sent the packet anywhere.

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!
