Updated patch, added your netmask validation code but without the check
that made 0.0.0.0 (default) and 255.255.255.255 (one address) invalid
netmasks as they are permitted in CIDR format.

The problem was that length of allocation changed but caller not told.
Anyway, the patch fixes a problem resulting in a double free
that occurs when using batch files that contains a special combination
of broken up lines and comments as reported in:

Enable users of ip to specify the times for rtt, rttvar and rto_min
in human-friendly terms a la "tc" while maintaining backwards
compatability with the previous "raw" mechanism. Builds upon
David Miller's uncommited patch to set rto_min.
