Subject: Re: [Patch 1/1][RFC] NETDEV: Find network bugs by validating the
 sk_buff state


Sorry, for this to be useful distributions are going to turn it on by
default, and adding 24 bytes to struct sk_buff on 64-bit when we're
trying everything in our power to make it smaller rather than larger
is not acceptable.

It's a useful change, something to keep in one's back pocket when
debugging something, but not for upstream, sorry.
