IIUC skb_clone() is often used in this scenario so that the user can
retrieve the error-causing packet from the error queue. Is there some
reason we shouldn't do this?

I'm seeing that the serr bits need to occur on the clone here, not the
original. I didn't realize the SKB_EXT_ERR() is a skb->cb cast. I'm not
actually sure how this passes the test case since ->cb isn't cloned.

Ah yes, true.

Strange, I built each patch individually without issue. My base is
netdev/main with your SOL_VSOCK patch applied. I will look today and see
if I'm missing something.

Got it, thanks.
