I came across this problem while trying to use UDP encapsulation with IPv6. The
change below fixes that, but it was not immediately apparent if there are any
other protocols relying on this broken behavior. FWIW the behavior below now
matches IPv4.

UDP encapsulation is broken on IPv6 because it expects when it returns a negative
value that the packet will be resubmitted to the stack with the handler corresponding
to the return value. The check currently looks for return values > 0 and then resubmits.
This patch fixes that check and also moves the resubmit label to take advantage of
the return code identifying the next protocol we want to process.
