Do not cast away void*.
This initialization above looks very strange: in
fact only one of skb, page makes sense.
So I think you should either get rid of both page and
skb variables (routines such as give_pages get page *
so they will accept void* just as happily) or
move initialization or even use of these variables to
where they are used.

So above you override skb that you initialized
at the start of function. It would be better
to do in the 3'd case:
skb = buf;
as well. And then it would be clear why
" Only for mergeable and big" comment below
is true.

Did you remove drop: label? If no, is it unused now?

Does this have to be initialized? If not (as it seems) better not do it.

This looks like double free to me: should not you remove code that does
__skb_dequeue on recv above?
