There's a comment above the pskb_expand_head() call that isn't quite
part of the context here, that should also be adjusted now that we don't
always linearise:

		/* In case we have to go down the path and also linearize,
		 * then lets do the pskb_expand_head() work just once here.
		 */

Actually, I think maybe just dropping that comment entirely with this
change would make sense?
