No body should need to modify the code, permissions seem fine  ;o)

The no frag struct means that we're processing a fragment, but
the internal frag control block for the parent flow has either been
deallocated or was never allocated (unlikely).  This could
happen if we think we've seen all the fragments, deallocate the
fragment tracking control block, and then, ..., somehow, we get
another fragment for the packet id, or a copy of one we've already
seen.   This, of course, is not suppose to happen.

I put the stop in the code to catch the scenario, so,...., i should try
to figure out what to do in this situation, now that I know that its
possible to get in this state.

But, ...., bad fragment packet reporting from this ring structure
would be bad.
