 From looking at skb_do_redirect, the skb_do_redirect should have consumed the 
skb except for the -EAGAIN return value. afaik, -EAGAIN could only happen by 
using the bpf_redirect_peer helper. lwt does not have the bpf_redirect_peer 
helper available, so there is no -EAGAIN case in lwt. iow, skb_do_redirect 
should have always consumed the skb in lwt. or did I miss something?

If that is the case, it feels like the fix should be in run_lwt_bpf() and the 
"if (ret == 0)" test in run_lwt_bpf() is unnecessary?

			ret = skb_do_redirect(skb);
			if (ret == 0)
				ret = BPF_REDIRECT;
