Btw, given the skb can come from all kind of points in the stack,
it could also be a clone at this point. One example is act_mirred
which in fact does skb_clone() and can push the skb back to
ingress path through netif_receive_skb() and thus could then go
into generic xdp processing, where skb can be mangled.

Instead of skb_linearize() we would therefore need to use something
like skb_ensure_writable(skb, skb->len) as equivalent, which also
makes sure that we unclone whenever needed.
