Hi all.
        To continue the trend of ipv6 patches flowing around, here is a patch 
to add some netfilter hooks for ipv6.  It modifies ip6_input.c and ip6_output.c 
and creates netfilter_ipv6.h.  I'm sure it misses some packet paths but it 
should get unicast tcp and udp traffic.  I've also got a test module that uses 
it at http://lordbeatnik.dynodns.net/netfilter named test.c that connects to 
each netfilter hook and printk's a debug message saying what hook was just 
called and some info about the packet.

I'd like to get some feedback on people's opinions of what I've done.  I 
believe I've placed the NF_HOOKs in the best locations but I don't know for 
sure.

Anyway, I'd like to have netfilter hooks for ipv6 so please send me any 
suggestions/flames/comments about this patch if someone has the time.

p.s. this patch doesn't include Alexey's tcp fix, but I have a patch for it on 
my website. The attached patch can also be downloaded from my website.
