skb->protocol holds ETH_P_* values in network byte order, NF_HOOK()
expects an NFPROTO_* value, so this would at least not be a simple
replacement. Actually I copied the code from xfrm_output_resume() in
xfrm_output.c, where skb_dst(skb)->ops is dereferenced without checking
as well. Do you think this is risky?

Well yes, tdev was set to dst->dev earlier. Likewise I could use dst
directly instead of skb_dst(skb) to simplify the call a bit further.
OTOH I like how in the version above it is clear that skb's dst should
be used, irrespective of the code above (and any later changes that may
receive). No strong opinion though, so if your version is regarded the
preferred one, I'm fine with that.

Thanks, Phil
