There where there already. The patch only changes the size of some local variables.

The size is currently kept in a uint8_t local variable before that subtraction. This truncates the value when the mbuf structure grows beyond 255 bytes, and can recover the wrong mbuf address. Use a uint32_t local value for the mbuf byte size so larger mbuf layouts are handled correctly.
