AFAICT, it should ask for 'diff' instead of 'diff - skb_tailroom(e->skb)'. Because the resulting sk_buff has not enough space to support the skb_put(skb, diff) call a few lines later, this results in the call to skb_over_panic(). The patch below asks for allocation of a copy with enough space for mangled packet and the same amount of headroom as old sk_buff. While looking at how the regression appeared (e2b58a67), I noticed the same pattern in ipq_mangle_ipv6() and ipq_mangle_ipv4(). The patch corrects those locations too. Tested with bigger reinjected IPv6 packets (nfqnl_mangle() path), things are ok (2.6.25 and today's net-2.6 git tree).
