Above list of Layer 4 protocols does not say if the flag may
be reported when all above protocols are supported or some
protocols are supported only.

Also I had a question about UDP checksum 0 since it could be
treated in a different ways since logically it is no checksum
at all.

Sorry, but I don't understand the question.

Do you mean that motivation in the changeset description is not
clear?

> Then what the flow type of ETH_RSS_PORT, it's UDP, TCP, or SCTP?      

I have no answer to the question as well. That's why I'm trying
to avoid it in the patch.

Sorry, don't understand.
