I don't think this is going to work, unfortunately. 'skb->dev' is in a
union with 'dev_scratch' so 'skb->dev' does not necessarily point to a
valid netdev at all times. It can explode when dev_net() tries to
dereference it.

__skb_flow_dissect() is doing something similar, but I believe there the
code paths were audited to make sure it is safe.

Did you consider achieving this functionality with a BPF program
attached to skb::kfree_skb tracepoint? I believe BPF programs are run
with page faults disabled, so it should be safe to attempt this there.
