Hmm, but skbedit seems better than skbmod for this job, given: 1) It already modifies skb->priority, although with a given value 2) skbmod doesn't change skb metadata, it only changes payload I am _not_ saying there is strict rule for what skbmod can or can't change, it calls itself "data modifier", so I am saying we probably need to follow this existing practice.
