commit 3b7a22b44d74b9b05d5e4b0529ebf72c49dcbff5

doc: document IPv6 TOS mangling bug in old Linux kernels
In Linux kernels up to and including 2.6.38, with the exception of longterm
releases 2.6.32.42 (or later) and 2.6.33.15 (or later), there is a bug (*) whereby
IPv6 TOS mangling does not behave as documented and differs from the IPv4
version. The TOS mask indicates the bits one wants to zero out, so it needs to
be inverted before applying it to the original TOS field. However, the
aformentioned kernels forgo the inversion which breaks --set-tos and its
mnemonics.
(*) Fixed by upstream commit:
1ed2f73d90fb49bcf5704aee7e9084adb882bfc5 (netfilter: IPv6: fix DSCP mangle code)
