Re: [PATCH net] net: change skb->mac_header when Generic XDP calls adjust_head

Since XDP's view of the packet includes the MAC header, moving the start-
 of-packet with bpf_xdp_adjust_head needs to also update the offset of the
 MAC header (which is relative to skb->head, not to the skb->data that was
 changed).
Without this, tcpdump sees packets starting from the old MAC header rather
 than the new one, at least in my tests on the loopback device.

Applied and queued up for -stable, thanks Edward.
