By re-entering the stack, Flavio probably meant storing this skb in
a socket receive queue, or anything that should already modify skb->destructor
(and thus call skb_orphan() before the modification)

If skb sits in some qdisc, like fq on ipvlan master device, we do not want skb->sk to be scrubbed,
just because ipvlan slave and master might be in different netns.
