First a zero-copy approach is\ntried if it succeeds then newskb becomes non-linear.\n\nWhen a subsequent fragment in the same datagram does not meet the\nfast-path conditions, a memory copy is performed. It calls skb_put() to\nappend the data and as newskb is non-linear it triggers\nSKB_LINEAR_ASSERT check.\n\n Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI\n [...]\n RIP: 0010:skb_put+0x3c/0x40\n [...]\n Call Trace:\n  <IRQ>\n  iptfs_reassem_cont+0x1ab/0x5e0 [xfrm_iptfs]\n  iptfs_input_ordered+0x2af/0x380 [xfrm_iptfs]\n  iptfs_input+0x122/0x3e0 [xfrm_iptfs]\n  xfrm_input+0x91e/0x1a50\n  xfrm4_esp_rcv+0x3a/0x110\n  ip_protocol_deliver_rcu+0x1d7/0x1f0\n  ip_local_deliver_finish+0xbe/0x1e0\n  __netif_receive_skb_core.constprop.0+0xb56/0x1120\n  __netif_receive_skb_list_core+0x133/0x2b0\n  netif_receive_skb_list_internal+0x1ff/0x3f0\n  napi_complete_done+0x81/0x220\n  virtnet_poll+0x9d6/0x116e [virtio_net]\n  __napi_poll.constprop.0+0x2b/0x270\n  net_rx_action+0x162/0x360\n  handle_softirqs+0xdc/0x510\n  __irq_exit_rcu+0xe7/0x110\n  irq_exit_rcu+0xe/0x20\n  common_interrupt+0x85/0xa0\n  </IRQ>\n  <TASK>\n\nFix this by checking if the skb is non-linear.
