Could you elaborate some more on what this has to do with data_len specifically
here? I'm not sure I follow exactly your above commit description. Are you saying
that you're hitting in tcp_gso_segment():

         [...]
         mss = skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size;
         if (unlikely(skb->len <= mss))
                 goto out;
         [...]

Please provide more context on the bug, thanks!
