This should be a good example for the case described in patch log. But I didn't
reproduce it on rhel7 before applying this patch, it's strange. 
...
      KERNEL: /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/3.10.0-1160.24.1.el7.x86_64/vmlinux

     RELEASE: 3.10.0-1160.24.1.el7.x86_64
     VERSION: #1 SMP Thu Mar 25 21:21:56 UTC 2021
     MACHINE: x86_64  (2892 Mhz)
      MEMORY: 4 GB
         PID: 7815
     COMMAND: "crash"

       STATE: TASK_RUNNING (ACTIVE)

crash> struct -o offload_callbacks
struct offload_callbacks {
       struct sk_buff *(*gso_segment)(struct sk_buff *, netdev_features_t);
       struct sk_buff **(*gro_receive)(struct sk_buff **, struct sk_buff *);
  [16] int (*gro_complete)(struct sk_buff *, int);
}
SIZE: 24

Do you happen to know how to reproduce this issue? John Pittman.

Thanks.
