Curious - this looks a lot like a similar thing in AHB, but there you
did it all in little endian? Totally different really, just looks
similar, or what's the reason?

Seems like you could unify those unlock paths, the rx_buf_needed-- can
almost certainly be before the access_end/unlock, and then just set
ret=0?

Personally, I'd have preferred to have the *skb as the return value, and
use ERR_PTR()/IS_ERR() etc. to encode the error values, rather than the
double pointer.

Maybe don't initialize that to a success value, just for robustness? You
don't actually need to initialize it at all though if you set ret=0 when
you actually succeed, which might be even nicer given that the function
is simple enough for the compiler to figure out if you used 'ret'
uninitialized or not.

You should probably use struct_size().
