Re: [DMM] 6.6. T.M.GTP4.D description (Re: I-D Action: draft-ietf-dmm-srv6-mobile-uplane-05.txt

So the assumption here is that both T.M.GTP4.D and End.M.GTP4.E are
instantiated on the same SRGW.
If that's what you intend,  considering B' doesn't need arg.mob.session, it
might be more natural to say like below, since the source IPv6 of the
packet translated by T.M.GTP4.D corresponds to S' mentioned in 6.5.
End.M.GTP4.E.
(And since GTP-U is uni-directional, T.M.GTP4.D and End.M.GTP4.E might not
be instantiated on the same SRGW. e.g. for scaling purpose)

If End.M.GTP4.E is also instantiated on the SR gateway, the Source UPF
Prefix of B' SHOULD be SRGW-IPv6-LOC-FUNC of End.M.GTP4.E SID
instantiated on the SR gateway.

Just my two cents.
