Well, eventually we want to be able to handle multiple-frame PDUs for
protocols running atop TCP by reassembling the TCP data stream and
having the protocols running atop TCP accumulate multiple chunks from
that stream into PDUs, just as we reassemble IPv4 fragments, so we will
eventually want to handle, in iSCSI, TCP segments with less than 48
bytes of payload.
