It looks like newbie coding that's all.  There's nothing tricky
here as far as I can tell.  We're just trying to fetch the ICMP
header to seed the IPsec lookup.

So how about this rewrite? I'm assuming that you're not going
to get rid of memcpy_fromiovecend/memcpy_toiovecend, if you
are, let me know and I'll redo this with iterators.

ipv4: Use standard iovec primitive in raw_probe_proto_opt

The function raw_probe_proto_opt tries to extract the first two
bytes from the user input in order to seed the IPsec lookup for
ICMP packets.  In doing so it's processing iovec by hand and
overcomplicating things.

This patch replaces the manual iovec processing with a call to
memcpy_fromiovecend.
