Hello Alex.

In nhc we have compression() and uncompression(). Currently we have a
limitation that we return -EEXIST when it's the nhc is already
registered according the nexthdr. But on receiving handling and the
nhcid we can indeed support both at the same time.

The sentence above is not really clear to me. Do you want to say that on rx we can support more than one nhcid? I am a bit confused why you write both here. Where does the limit to two come from?

We remove the current
static array implementation and replace it by a dynamic list handling to
get rid of this limitation.

We will always go with the first one we find? Do I miss something or does that mean the one registered as seond and above will never be taken into acount?
