|  
|  I don't think it needs to be configurable, and I also think the
|  split-out is easy as you just need to un-static a few things, and put
|  function declarations and perhaps a few inlines into a
|  net/ipv{4,6}/udp_impl.h header file that both udp.c and udplite.c both
|  include.
If you give me time until tomorrow morning, I will re-submit the split version - I would
like to take some time to go over it. I will use the filename as suggested for the header
file, unless there is another suggestion (the only header file in net/ipv?/ so far is 
fib_lookup.h).

Thanking you,
Gerrit
