Commit ade446403b ("net: ipv4: do not handle duplicate fragments as
overlapping") changed IPv4 defragmentation so that duplicate fragments,
as well as _some_ fragments completely covered by previously delivered
fragments, do not lead to the whole frag queue being discarded. This
makes the existing ip_defrag selftest flaky.
This patch
* makes sure that negative IPv4 defrag tests generate truly overlapping
fragments that trigger defrag queue drops;
* tests that duplicate IPv4 fragments do not trigger defrag queue drops;
* makes a couple of minor tweaks to the test aimed at increasing its code
coverage and reduce flakiness.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
