This patch set is another take at making Path MTU Discovery work when
server nodes are behind a router employing multipath routing in a
load-balance or anycast setup (that is, when not every end-node can be
reached by every path). The problem has been well described in RFC 7690
[1], but in short - in such setups ICMPv6 PTB errors are not guaranteed
to be routed back to the server node that sent a reply that exceeds path
MTU.

Ok, looks not to bad.

Applied, thanks.
