New Revision: 324052
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/324052

Log:
  mbuf: Remove UDP_IPV4_EX, which was never defined.
  
  Add comment to explain the IPV6_EX suffix.  The confusion about
  these RSS hash type probably stems from the facts that they were
  never widely implemented by hardwares.
