It is not a bug. The way it is structured is like [packet header + payload]. The
packet header size should be (size of header + payload). Line 73 calculates the
size of packet header, while line 86 calculates size of payload. Since payload
starts from the last u32, the total size needs to be reduced by size of u32.

The patch looks good. As stated in previous patch, lets combine this into a
single series.
