My test setup was the following:
I use an IPsec tunnel with tunnel endpoints 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2
Then I do at 192.168.1.2
ping -c1 -M do -s 1410 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 1410(1438) bytes of data.
>From 192.168.1.2 icmp_seq=1 Frag needed and DF set (mtu = 1438)
--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
0 packets transmitted, 0 received, +1 errors
So the packet matches the mtu but it is not send.
I used a kernel with your patch as head commit.
Reverting your patch (going one commit deeper in the history):
ping -c1 -M do -s 1410 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 1410(1438) bytes of data.
1418 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=3.01 ms
--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 3.014/3.014/3.014/0.000 ms

Hm, I don't know. I'll try to reproduce it here.

trailer_len is used only on IPsec so the poroblem exists only when
using IPsec, right?

Would be nice if you could provide these scripts and some informations
on how to reproduce the problem.
