After you mentioned it, I discovered it. 
I forgot to check the email details before sending the patch.

__sys_sendto()->
   __sock_sendmsg()->
      netlink_sendmsg()->
         netlink_broadcast_filtered()->
            netlink_trim()->
	       1323         pskb_expand_head(skb, 0, -delta, 
                  1                          (allocation & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM) |
                  2                          __GFP_NOWARN | __GFP_NORETRY);
               pskb_expand_head()->
                 skb_headers_offset_update()->
		 1977         skb->inner_network_header += off;

The root cause is: 
Initialize inner_network_header to 0 in network_trim(), and without any other
assignment operations.
