I'm sure you can find a way to steal sizeof(void *) from
"struct tcp_skb_cb" :-)

It is currently 36 bytes on both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms.
This means if you can squeeze out 4 bytes (so that it fits
in the skb->cb[] 40 byte area), you can fit a pointer in there
for the linked list stuff.

I'll try to brain storm on this as well.
