If it's a TCP-based session and per-packet load balancing gets the packets 
out of order, then TCP would put them back in order based on the TCP 
sequence numbers. This would happen at the end node, not at the router. If 
it were a UDP-based session, then an upper layer at the end node would have 
to do it.
