ip6_gre: fix ip6gre_err() invalid reads
Andrey Konovalov reported out of bound accesses in ip6gre_err() If GRE flags contains GRE_KEY, the following expression *(((__be32 *)p) + (grehlen / 4) - 1) accesses data ~40 bytes after the expected point, since grehlen includes the size of IPv6 headers. Let's use a "struct gre_base_hdr *greh" pointer to make this code more readable. p[1] becomes greh->protocol. grhlen is the GRE header length.
