+ if (padding_size != 0)

I think you want to use skb_put_zero() here rather than leaving it
uninitialized. I know it's padding, but if for some reason this leaks
onto the wire or elsewhere we'll regret not initializing this buffer.
+ /* Copy TX header */
+ skb_push(skb, sizeof(tx_desc));
+ cpu_to_le64s(&tx_desc);
+ skb_copy_to_linear_data(skb, &tx_desc, sizeof(tx_desc));
I seriously wonder if, with all of the invariants wrt. length modulus
and padding, that you can safely just go:
__le64 *p;
p = skb_push(skb, sizeof(tx_desc));
*p = cpu_to_le64(tx_desc);
or something like that.
