So it looks like you have a device with a very big hh_len

MAX_TCP_HEADER is not enough space to hold all headers, and this is
the

bug that needs to be fixed. This is scary to realloc all tcp packets !
drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc_drv.c sets a needed_headroom of 220 bytes :(

Could you try :

With your 2nd patch, I saw:
[   19.242104] Wow ! headroom=164 while hh_len(eth0)=240

After adding the 3rd patch with increased LL_MAX_HEADER,
the warning and stack trace no longer show up.

Also, could you fix the net core code so that it doesn't 
panic even with reallocated header?
