This isn't directly related to this patch, but I notice that flow
dissector doesn't used the ipv6_optlen macro and doesn't have
NEXTHDR_AUTH or NEXTHDR_NONE in the ip_proto switch statement. Would
be a nice fix. The NEXTHDR_NONE is probably just a break, but would be
nice to have it there for completeness.
