Thanks for the feedback!
Some retrospective about this:
We originally used the skb->ddp_crc bit for this check, but later we
tried to avoid it so as to reduce our dependence on said skb bit.
Unfortunately, that later change wasn't tested thoroughly.
We'll post v3 patches that will use the skb->ddp_crc bit for this check.
After re-testing with the new v3 patch I'm confident it will work.
