Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/1] net: Add doc on how SKBs work

I'm ramping up on Linux networking and found the material at
http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/skb_data.html very useful.  Therefore
here is a patch to copy that into a Documentation/networking file in
the Linux tree.

Is this kind of thing welcome?  If it is, I'm aware that:

- some of the details are out of date

- more material would be useful on other pointers into the data area,
  such as the MAC and network headers

and would propose to work on addressing those in subsequent changes.

Regards,
    Neil
