Storing the pending_idx at the first byte of the linear buffer never looked good, skb->cb is a more proper place for this. It also prevents the header to be directly grant copied there, and we don't have the pending_idx after we copied the header here, so it's time to change it.I think this is a valid change. But I would like you to define a skb_cb_overlay just like the receive path does. You can rename skb_cb_overlay in current code to skb_cb_overlay_rx and add your skb_cb_overlay_tx.
Ok
