+{{pseudo-hp}} shows a sample algorithm for applying header protection. Removing
+protection only differs in the order in which the packet number length
+(pn_length) is determined.
+
+~~~
+mask = header_protection(hp_key, sample)
+
+pn_length = (packet[0] & 0x03) + 1
+if packet[0] & 0x80 == 0x80:
+   # Long header: 4 bits masked
+   packet[0] ^= mask[0] & 0x0f
+else:
+   # Short header: 5 bits masked
+   packet[0] ^= mask[0] & 0x1f

No, that doesn't work, because the value of the spin bit is covered by the AAD, and we have to have peers agree on what the value is.
