IIUC virtio_transport_dec_rx_pkt() is always called after skb_pull(),
so skb_headroom() is returning the amount of space we removed.

Looking at the other patches in this series, I think maybe we should
change virtio_transport_dec_rx_pkt() and virtio_transport_inc_rx_pkt()
by passing the value to subtract or add directly.
Since some times we don't remove the whole payload, so it would be
better to call it with the value in hdr->len.

I mean something like this (untested):

When we used vsock_pkt, we were passing the structure because the `len`
field was immutable (and copied from the header), whereas with skb it
can change and so we introduced these errors.

What do you think?
