The skb_shared_info part of the data is assigned in the following loop. It
is meaningless to do a memcpy here.

This is not correct. We still have to copy _something_
Something like :

It's at the below for (i = 0; i < nfrags; i++) loop. But I missed something as Eric Dumazet pointed out.
Sorry about it.

Thanks for your remind. I would wait for it open.

This looks good. Will send a patch v2 soon. May I add a suggested-by tag of you ?
Many thanks.

I would advise not using Suggested-by, as this would imply I suggested the idea of changing

I will add a Reviewed-by: eventually if your v2 submission looks fine to me.
Thanks.
