Untested / uncompiled, but should be:

        case offsetof(struct __sk_buff, queue_mapping):
                if (type == BPF_WRITE) {
                        *insn++ = BPF_JMP_IMM(BPF_JGE, si->src_reg, NO_QUEUE_MAPPING, 1);
                        *insn++ = BPF_STX_MEM(BPF_H, si->dst_reg, si->src_reg,
                                              bpf_target_off(struct sk_buff, queue_mapping, 2,
                                                             target_size));
                } else {
                        *insn++ = BPF_LDX_MEM(BPF_H, si->dst_reg, si->src_reg,
                                              bpf_target_off(struct sk_buff, queue_mapping, 2,
                                                             target_size));
                }
                break;
