commit 40413955ee26 ("Cipso: cipso_v4_optptr enter infinite loop") fixed a possible infinite loop in the IP option parsing of CIPSO. The fix assumes that ip_options_compile filtered out all zero length options and that no other one-byte options beside IPOPT_END and IPOPT_NOOP exist. While this assumption currently holds true, add explicit checks for zero length and invalid length options to be safe for the future. Even though ip_options_compile should have validated the options, the introduction of new one-byte options can still confuse this code without the additional checks.

See my previous comments about the necessity of this patch, but beyond that it looks fine to me.

Not worth re-spinning this patch, but looking at this a bit closer, we could probably optimize the "optlen > 1" tweak a bit further by using CIPSO_V4_HDR_LEN instead of "1" since we only care about CIPSO headers here.
Although given the nature of IPv4 options, I'm not sure this would ever really have an impact, let alone a noticeable impact.
