   in handle_packet() i've tried various things e.g. kfree_skb, skb_dequeue, 
   skb_unlink, ... but the packet never gets dropped. when handle_packet() gets 
   the sk_buff it's cloned, is this causing problems with the dropping?
   
Just because your device gets the packet, doesn't mean other devices
won't get the packet too.

No matter what you do in your packet handler, other devices will
still see the packet, as will packet sniffers.
