Thanks. So this would be the atomic_inc on shb_shinfo(skb)->dataref, which
matches the __ll_sc_atomic_add in Mark's trace.

Debugging with crash shows 0xffff800071bb3180 and 0xffff800071bb2c80
to be valid skbuffs of len 40, no sk, both pointing to the same head.

That is indeed unaligned:  head = 0xffff8000327c80c9 "", end = 256, giving
skb_shared_info at 0xffff8000327c81c9 and  &skb_shared_info(skb)->dataref
at 0xffff8000327c81c9 + 36 == 0xffff8000327c81ed
