    Fei Liu reported a crash when doing netperf on a topo of macsec
    dev over veth:

    The issue was caused by skb's true_size changed without its sk's
    sk_wmem_alloc increased in tcp/skb_gro_receive(). Later when the
    skb is being freed and the skb's truesize is subtracted from its
    sk's sk_wmem_alloc in tcp_wfree(), underflow occurs.
    
    macsec is calling gro_cells_receive() to receive a packet, which
    actually requires skb->sk to be NULL. However when macsec dev is
    over veth, it's possible the skb->sk is still set if the skb was
    not unshared or expanded from the peer veth.
    
    ip_rcv() is calling skb_orphan() to drop the skb's sk for tproxy,
    but it is too late for macsec's calling gro_cells_receive(). So
    fix it by dropping the skb's sk earlier on rx path of macsec.
