Ouch... Care to explain why you changed this part ???
You just destroyed commit f84af32cbca70a intent, without any word in
your changelog. Making UDP slower, while others try to speed it must be
explained and advertised.
In general, we prefer a preliminary patch introducing all the changes in
current stack, then another one with the new protocol.
