Code looks generally fine to me.  Only thing of note is that this
adds a new dev_requeue_skb() call site and that might intersect with
John Fastabend's RFC work to make qdiscs lockless.

Also, please adhere to the reverse christmas tree rule for the
ordering of your function local variables.

Thank you.
