Sorry, the subsequent BUG_ON maybe should be removed in this patch, because
for skb_headlen(list_skb) > len, it will continue splitting as commit 13acc94eff122 
(net: permit skb_segment on head_frag frag_list skb) does.

yes, it's correct.
list_skb->len is 125
gso_size is 75, also the len in the BUG_ON conditon
list_skb->head_frag is true

I'll wait for more suggestions from others.
