Thanks for doing this Cong comment/question inline.

I'm trying to see why we might have an offset here if we always
consume the entire skb. There is a comment in tcp_recv_skb around
GRO packets, but not clear how this applies here if it does at all
to me yet. Will read a bit more I guess.

If the offset can be >0 than we also need to fix the recv_actor to
account for the extra offset in the skb. As is the bpf prog might
see duplicate data. This is a problem on the stream parser now.

Then another fallout is if offset is zero than we could just do
a skb_dequeue here and skip the tcp_recv_skb bool flag addition
and upate.

I'll continue reading after a few other things I need to get
sorted this afternoon, but maybe you have the answer on hand.
