This series improves the flow inspector handling of ICMP packets: The first two patches just add some comments in the code which would have saved me a few minutes of time, and refactor a piece of code. The third one adds to the flow inspector the capability to extract the Identifier field, if present, so echo requests and replies are classified as part of the same flow. The fourth patch uses the function introduced earlier to the bonding driver, so echo replies can be balanced across bonding slaves.
