Re: [PATCH net v9] skb_expand_head() adjust skb->truesize incorrectly

Dear Eric,
could you please take look at this patch?

Original issue reported by Christoph Paasch is still not fixed,
however now buggy paches was merged into upstream.

v6 patch version [1] fixes the problem by careful change of destructor
on existing skb. I still think it is correct however I'm agree
it requires careful review.

This patch version is more simple and returns to cloning of non-wmem skb.

Both variants (i.e. this one and v6) resolves the problem.

Could you please review the patches, select one of them or propose some
better solution?

Thank you,
Vasily Averin
