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.
