This can be caused by BPF, but there seems to be no consensus yet.

"""
I think the consensus here is that the stack, in general, doesn't
expect the packets like this. So there are probably more broken things
besides fq_codel. Thus, it's better if we remove the ability to
generate them from the bpf side instead of fixing the individual users
like fq_codel.

We can move this into the if-block below or remove.

just            __qdisc_drop(dequeue_head(flow), to_free);
