unsigned?

What protects the device from disappearing here and below during
dev_queue_xmit() and netif_rx_ni()?

So fragments will get reordered?

ip_hdrlen()?

Where does 10 come from?

Perhaps hash on skb->protocol here.

We currently use unsigned ints for the queue number, so please
use an u32 for the attribute as well.
