Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/7] net: packet: use skb->dev as storage for skb orig len instead of skb->cb[]

As part of an effort to move skb->dropcount to skb->cb[], 4 bytes
of additional room are needed in skb->cb[] in packet sockets.

Store the skb original length in skb->dev instead of skb->cb[] for
this purpose.
