[PATCH] net: Fix skb_network_offset in neigh_resolve_output and neigh_connected_output

From: Abdelrhman Ahmed <hidden>

Commit e1f165032c8bade3a6bdf546f8faf61fda4dd01c ("net: Fix 
skb_under_panic oops in neigh_resolve_output") resets the skb to 
network_header, but this will discard header or data which is inserted 
by netfilter hooks (e.g. POSTROUTING) between network layer and hardware 
header only for the first packet(s) before using cached hardware header 
and this will lead to inconsistent behavior for outgoing packets.
The fix is to reset with reference to skb's data pointer before loop 
instead of network header.
