Is not entirely clear how this function works. It seems that it works again 
with the subnet bits and comparing the length of the prefix networks.

Probably you mean that you need to add back the comparison ranges? If so, what 
if we use zywall we do not know the format of the range.
Well, as I said, I badly oriented in the kernel code. I can tell kettle. A 
change in the function code certainly entail a change in at least the data 
types passed to the function.
