[IPV6]: IPv6 extension header structures need to be packed.
struct ipv6_opt_hdr is the common structure for IPv6 extension headers, and it is common to increment the pointer to get the real content. On the other hand, since the structure consists only of 1-byte next-header field and 1-byte length field, size of that structure depends on architecture; 2 or 4. Add "packed" attribute to get 2.
