I think you mean something like this, which works for me, although I've
only lightly tested it.

Subject: [PATCH] xen-netfront: use __pskb_pull_tail to ensure linear area is big enough on RX
I'm slightly concerned by the "only in exceptional circumstances"
comment on __pskb_pull_tail but the structure of an skb just created
by netfront shouldn't hit any of the especially slow cases.
This approach still does slightly more work than the old way, since if
we pull up the entire first frag we now have to shuffle everything
down where before we just received into the right place in the first
place.
