Yes, I was planning to send a patch to this one though it will not be as slick.
It would be nice to have a helper which will call skb_put() and add
eir data at once.
Basically skb operation in pair to, what eir_append_data() does with
help of eir_len but without awkwardness when passing return value to
skb_put() (as it returns offset not size).
I will send V2 with two patches. I hope they will align with your
original goal of eliminating the necessity of intermediary buffers at
some point in future.

Both are initialized to 0 by this patch.
