Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next] core: adjust checks for calling skb_copy_bits in skb_try_coalesce

I think the below modification maybe needed,
if (len <= skb_tailroom(to) && !skb_shinfo(to)->nr_frags) {
..
}

First skb A is added to skb TO frags, since the len is larger
than skb_tailroot(TO), but second len of skb B is less than
skb_tailroot(To)  which will call skb_copy_bits.

Of cause, this kinds of cases maybe only exist on my mind.
