I wonder if our current issue with the correct attribution of host 
generated CAN skbs in j1939 could be solved by additionally setting 
skb->redirected = 1 when the CAN skb is echo'ed back.

Or what about creating a single socket/sk instance for the j1939 
protocol which makes j1939 created skbs assigned to the j1939 system?

Best regards,
Oliver
