The offset may be greater than PAGE_SIZE, because page is obtained by
virt_to_head_page(), not the page where buf is located. And "offset" is the offset
of buf relative to page.

	tailroom = truesize - len - offset;

In this case, the tailroom must be less than 0. Although there may be enough
content on this page to save skb_shared_info.
