Pulled, thanks Simon.

One request and one question:

Please, extend the info in the pull request a bit more, I think it's
good for the record. Alex included a short description on the ICMP
schedule use case on the original submission, will take it and include
it in the pull request for David.

And the question is, under what circunstances you may not want to
schedule ICMP? I'm telling this because of the new schedule_icmp sysctl.

Thanks.
