The code looks correct to me now, except it is suspicious skb->len
is not updated after skb_copy_to_linear_data() while skb->tail is
advanced already. I need to think more before submitting a patch.
I feel like we need the following patch, maybe skb->len is updated somewhere
else by "skb->tail - skb->head", otherwise we are screwed?

Maybe in skb_add_rx_frag?  You might take a look at it.

Seriously? Are you even reading the code? The fragment is already a part of the skb, as such it is already included in skb->len. By re-adding the header you are adding bytes that aren't there. All we were doing is moving data from a fragment to the linear portion.

No offense but your starting to waste my time with these silly patch ideas. The patches I submitted to intel-wired-lan fix the issue that you found, and there aren't any new issues that it creates so the issue is resolved. And like I said if you need to fix this in stable just subtract IGB_TS_HDR_LEN from the header length scanned in eth_get_headlen and it will resolve the issue you reported and that way we can fix the issue and avoid pulling a fragment down to size 0.
