Oh well, no need to use __skb_get_poff() but plain skb_flow_dissect()
(once patched to include thoff in struct flow_keys)

struct flow_keys keys;

if (!skb_flow_dissect(skb, &keys))
	goto drop;

if ((gso_type & (SKB_GSO_TCPV4|SKB_GSO_TCPV6)) &&
    keys.ip_proto != IP_PROTO_TCP)
	goto drop;

skb_set_transport_header(skb, keys.thoff);
