I'm sorry for the late feedback.

I see that the pppoe rcv() code ignores the type and ver fields, but I
guess it should be better to match them here, to ensure that the
segmented packet sequence matches the pre-aggregation one.

You could cast the phdr* to u32* and compare such integer.

Minor nit: unneeded empty line above

What about filtering for phdr->code == 0 (session data) to avoid useless
late processing?
