           I'm puzzling out exactly change this message is requesting,

Packet receive must be aware of shared skb's (it must make
a copy if it wants to modify packet contents) and it must
be fully SMP threaded.

Then ptype->data is changed to some non-NULL value to indicate that it
is a "new" protocol.
