Hmm... I never said it was supposed to fix Emil problem, just that 
I discovered one potential problem by code inspection.

I could not find yet sk_refcnt mismatch.
As we do less atomic ops per packet than before, some old bug could surface
now...

Emil, is it easy to reproduce this problem, considering I have a similar
platform than yours (dual quad core machine, E5450 cpus @ 3GHz) ?
