said change only affects packets which go through a dummynet pipe, and
moreover it is a NOP unless you have a pkt larger than MTU and with the
DF bit set, in which case you the code before the patch gives a very
repeatable panic/reboot. Such pkts are extremely unlikely i'd say.

Beside that, i have tested that the above patch works as expected (this
on a diskless machine, so the net code is pretty well exercised...)

no  problem, but i really think your problem is unrelated to my patch.
