Urgh, didn't know that pskb_may_pull() doesn't like an skb with a
reference count greater than one... But yes, the BUG() call in
skbuff.c:1128 / pskb_expand_head() says that (though in this case
the BUG() in skbuff.c call actually seems kinda weird (/"wrong"?), as
it isn't shared between different code paths).
Thanks for the thorough analysis, going to provide a patch within
the next 24h (hopefully).
Cheers, Linus
