Hi Antonio, I took a little break but I'm looking at your patches
again now.

Those are really big. I guess for large servers they make sense, but
you're making clients hold 98kB in memory that they're not going to use.

Maybe they could be dynamically sized, but I think struct peers should
be allocated on demand (only for mode == MP) if you want this size.

Why are hash_entry_transp_addr and hash_entry_addr6 getting a
hlist_del_init_rcu() call, but not hash_entry_id and hash_entry_addr4?

!ipv6_addr_any(&peer->vpn_addrs.ipv6)
