    genet: Fix problem with forwarding some TCP/IPv6 packets
    
    TCP/IPv6 packets to be forwarded can be laid out with only the Ethernet
    header in the first mbuf, and these packets are lost.  There was a
    previous hack to pullup ICMPv6 packets with such a layout for the
    same reason.  Generalize, and pullup any IPv6 packets with only the
    Ethernet header in the first mbuf.  Possibly this should also include
    IPv4, but that situation has not been observed to fail.
