Good point. Let's generalise it into a counter as well.
This patch adds skb_header_release which can be called when the owner
of an skb no longer needs to access the header at all. What constitutes
the header is left up to the users of the skb to define.
For instance, for outbound TCP packets we define the header to be
anything in front of the TCP payload. Therefore we add skb_header_release
calls to all the paths where outound TCP packets are produced.
