I worry that WARN_ON(), especially in conjunction with the one below,
could generate a lot of noise on the console and system logs, let's
be a bit more selective about what we check and report on.  Presumably
the options have already gone through a basic sanity check so there
shouldn't be anything too scary in there.

  if (opt == IPOPT_END) {
    /* ... */
  } else if (opt == IPOPT_NOP) {
    /* ... */
  } else {
    iter += opt[iter + 1];
    optlen_new = iter;
  }

This is also probably not really necessary, but it bothers me less.
