It would be better to use the new style module_parm here, then 
it could be even modified from sysfs at runtime when you set suitable 
permissions.

Are you sure this works?  I'm not sure skb->nh.iph is initialized
at this point. At this point you have to skip the ethernet header
yourself.

This may have the same problem depending on where it is called from.
Should be unlikely enough though that it could be ignored.

This function only sets skb->nh.iph

This shouldn't be needed anymore, no?

[...] Not sure why you made these two functions inline?
