rS346402: When a checksum has to be computed for a received IPv6 packet because it
Summary

When computing the checksum for a received packet, ensure that you have enough bytes in the packet such that it contains the checksum. This fixes in particular syzbot, which was injecting an empty (plen = 0) packet, which resulted in a panic.
