packet: Match userspace and kernel definition of ICMP header.
Current userspace considers an ICMP header to be 4 bytes consisting of the type, code, and checksum. The kernel considers it to be 8 bytes because it also counts the two data fields that contain type-specific information (and are always present). Since flow extract will zero out headers that are not completely present this means that an ICMP packet that has a header of 5-7 bytes will be interpreted differently by userspace and kernel. This fixes the problem by adopting the kernel's version of the ICMP header in userspace. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
