Below is the patch that I have in my queue.  I've added a Reported-by
tag to give you some credit, even-though I already had plans to fix
this, as part of my XDP frame_sz work.


[PATCH RFC net-next] veth: adjust hard_start offset on redirect XDP frames

When native XDP redirect into a veth device, the frame arrives in the
xdp_frame structure. It is then processed in veth_xdp_rcv_one(),
which can run a new XDP bpf_prog on the packet. Doing so requires
converting xdp_frame to xdp_buff, but the tricky part is that
xdp_frame memory area is located in the top (data_hard_start) memory
area that xdp_buff will point into.

The current code tried to protect the xdp_frame area, by assigning
xdp_buff.data_hard_start past this memory. This results in 32 bytes
less headroom to expand into via BPF-helper bpf_xdp_adjust_head().

This protect step is actually not needed, because BPF-helper
bpf_xdp_adjust_head() already reserve this area, and don't allow
BPF-prog to expand into it. Thus, it is safe to point data_hard_start
directly at xdp_frame memory area.
