Subject: [PATCH] exthdr: prefer raw_type instead of desc->type
On ancient kernels desc can be NULL, because such kernels do not
understand NFTA_EXTHDR_TYPE.
Thus they don't include it in the reverse dump, so the tcp/ip
option gets treated like an ipv6 exthdr, but no matching
description will be found.
This then gives a crash due to the null deref.
Just use the raw value here, this avoid a crash and at least
print *something*, e.g.:
unknown-exthdr unknown & 0xf0 [invalid type] == 0x0 [invalid type]
