Yep, skbs from here are allocated in mld_newpack, and skb_put is always called
on them

Yeah, I'll fix that.  I'll just record the length before I send it off, and use
that instead.

Yeah, that was stupid, I think I can fix that though by using the computation of
full_len though, since we know how much space we need right before the call to
sock_alloc_send_skb

Copy that, I can reuse full_len here I believe.

Thanks for the eyes, I'll fix these up and repost after I test it a bit
