I remember this issue from the discussion, a note from Ben Hutchings
actually, where there was a further "skb_reserve(skb, 8);" in the "else"
case below. Looks like I only removed the skb_reserve().
Can't find this review from you - I hope there are no other issues left?
(Was I on CC?)

Why add curly braces around a single statement?
Thanks,
Roland
