This is not a correct translation of the original test:

> -		     (skb->len > (dev->mtu + dev->hard_header_len + VLAN_HLEN)))) {

You need to use "<=" in your version, which currently rejects all
full sized frames. :-)

I am trying to understand why you aren't simply checking also if this
is a segmented frame?  Perhaps skb_is_gso() && device has NETIF_F_TSO
set?
