Well, it does, since packet will be processed by the main stack after
that, and module will work with the copy only. But I agree that this is
a weak argument.
If it is still a blocking one, what about implementing additional
gpl-only list of handlers which will have 'consumed' skb check? I
believe it would be enough to put it only in single place after the
bridge?
