SKB BUG: Invalid truesize (344) len=134, sizeof(sk_buff)=216

This correlates with ping6 the box to death with the following IPsec
configuration and entering/leaving tcpdumping on the other end.

Numbers are always the same.

It _looks_like_ IPv4 ping is fine, but I haven't experimented much.

It's a known problem.  When we expand packet headers in IPsec
we're not adjusting the truesize.

Care to elaborate on this a little bit more to refresh
everyone's memory and perhaps someone can work on a fix?

Thanks!

For a start have a look at xfrm_state_check_space where we expand
the packet without adjusting its truesize.
