You probably want/must also update sk_set_peek_off() to allow negative
values, elsewhere this will break as soon as the user will do
SOL_SOCKET/SO_PEEK_OFF.

I'm wondering adding an explicit SOCK_PEEK_OFF/MSG_PEEK_OFF socket flag
would help simplyifing the code: no need for negative offset; set such
flag when SOL_SOCKET/SO_PEEK_OFF with a non negative value is called
(and clear it when a negative value is used), forward such flag to
__skb_try_recv_datagram/__skb_try_recv_from_queue and use it to select
the proper peek behaviour.
