Thanks for looking into this. This ends up going via ingress_enqueue(),
right? Maybe it would be better to add a new netlink attribute for
ingress qdisc there that sets a flag in ingress_qdisc_data to pull the
header space before calling tc_classify() and restore it later on?
So, it would be configurable from tc. Would that work?
