Oh, right, I missed that. But even if we have a.g. ip header with icmp
header, then the postconditions are the same, no?
as-is:
pskb_may_pull -> ok, then iph->protocol == IPPROTO_IPIP -> return false
with 2*iph:
pskb_may_pull -> return false
... but I'll leave it up to you, if you prefer pskb_may_pull(skb, sizeof(*iph)))
for clarity then lets keep it as-is.

Indeed it is! Nevermind then :-)
