This patch fixes a bug where vnet_skb_shape() didn't set the already-selected
 queue mapping when a packet copy was required. This results in using the
 wrong queue index for stops/starts, hung tx queues and watchdog timeouts
 under heavy load.

Note that vnet_skb_shape() also drops the skb -> sk assocation.

-> That removes flow control, a single socket can fill TX ring buffer.
TCP Small queue is also disabled.

I would try add before the dev_kfree_skb(skb) :

swap(nskb->sk, skb->sk);
swap(nskb->truesize, skb->truesize);
