If we don't pass a skb into ip_options_compile(), meaning both "skb"
and "rt" will be NULL, then I don't believe the option data will
change. Am I missing something?

I mean, in cipso_v4_error we copy option data from skb before ip_options_compile call:
+       memcpy(opt->__data, (unsigned char *)&(ip_hdr(skb)[1]), opt->optlen);
But skb IP header data could be already changed by first call of ip_options_compile
when packet received.

There are several cases where the stack ends up calling icmp_send()
after the skb has been through ip_options_compile(), that should be
okay.
