Don't we need an additional pskb_may_pull here?

If I get it right, 'ipv6_rcv' only assures sizeof(ipv6hdr) to be in the
linear header (unless it's a NEXTHDR_HOP, which is not the case here).

In the case where netif_is_l3_master(skb->dev) is true, can you explain
why we need to pass it through the l3mdev_l3_rcv callback again?
