I was able to reproduce this issue occasionally with pktgen if I cloned the skb. What may be happening is that the buffer is being mapped in the transmit path on one CPU while on another CPU the buffer is being cleaned. Since the output of each mapping is the physical address there is nothing to make each mapping unique and I suspect this is resulting in false hits. You should be able to verify this if you were to check the skb->users count as well as the dataref value in the skb_shared_info. I suspect either the users count of the dataref will be greater than 1. You might also try testing the patch below to see if it has any effect. All it does is reorder the free and the unmap so that the buffer is not freed for reuse until after we have checked it in the unmap path.
