 * What changed?

 Only one change since 1.1.1 to fix a major regression in the network stack
 to reassemble fragmented packets during heavy load situations.

 * How risky is this change?

 The change revert to the old code that´s known to work. Apparently the
 issue was not spotted in normal regression testing as it shows only in
 very specific environments and network loads. Upstream now has a specific
 test case to validate the code path.
 The code now passes the test suite.

 * How important is this change?

 Very important, because there is no way to predict when the bug will
 trigger exactly and there is no workaround.

 * How well tested is this package build?

 As the described above, upstream has created a specific test for this
 situation and test suite passes. The user reporting the issue has
 confirmed that reverting to the old code fixes the problem.

 * Is this package in the critical-path list?

 No
