Indeed. We can allow such skbs here at least if we don't need
reallocation (which is highly unlikely though).
But I'm not sure we should allocate multiple pages in atomic context.
It tends to cause random allocation failure which is IMO more
frustrating. We are now prohibiting such a situation by max_mtu and
dropping features, which looks more robust to me.

Sure, thanks!
