Go ahead. BTW, I'm reasonably sure CMA does not check MajV at least in
incoming HelloAck. I think since you must check it in incoming Hello
in CMA, its best to check it in incoming HelloAck in CMA as well.

Another validation check needed in CMA:

CA4-17: The accepting peer shall reject the connection if IPV of the HH
has a value other than 0x4 or 0x6.
