Yes, I am precisely saying this : do not rely on some union layout,
without mentioning it in the changelog
or even better in a comment.

If you want to avoid clearing these fields, please add a
BUILD_BUG_ON() to make sure
a unrelated future change in include/net/flow.h does not break a
hidden assumption.

(ie : clearing fl4_dport and fl4_sport also clears fl4_icmp_type and
fl4_icmp_code.)
