'rcv_nxt' is used in the tcp stack to calculate lots of things. If you just bump it and then ever received an actual TCP pkt you would get some really odd behavior because seq numbers and rcv_nxt would be unrelated then. The approach you have is really the best bet IMO, but mask out the increment msg_len where its not needed. Then it should be OK. Mixing ingress redirect and TCP sending/recv pkts doesn't usually work very well anyway but I still think leaving rcv_nxt alone is best.
