[NETFILTER6]: Add new ip6tables HOPLIMIT target
This target allows users to modify the hoplimit header field of the IPv6 header. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

+ help
+ This option adds a `HL' target, which enables the user to decrement
+ the hoplimit value of the IPv6 header or set it to a given (lower)
+ value.
+
+ While it is safe to decrement the hoplimit value, this option also
+ enables functionality to increment and set the hoplimit value of the
+ IPv6 header to arbitrary values. This is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS since
+ you can easily create immortal packets that loop forever on the
+ network.

+ To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
