The code seems very similar to the one that is available in RFC1071. I
recently added initial support for message checksumming to conntrackd
and used that code (slightely modified) indicating the source, thus not
explicitely licensing that part as GPL since I don't own the copyright
of it. Can we consider examples available in a RFC as public domain code?
