Unfortunately, not really, I haven't thought through of all the
situations and it has been a long time since I've had to worry about
things like this.  I think we are in agreement that it needs to
change, so let's just make the change.

That's fine, but please send it as one patchset.  Also, to get ahead
of the next likely question, no I don't think the skb_network_offset()
fix is -stable worthy at the moment.

How does userspace distinguish between an unset nfmark and a nfmark of
0xffffffff?
