When we try to ping a unknown external host from internal hosts, it panic immediately due to unaligned data access. In this case, hh_len is equal to 18 (vlan mac header length), headroom (skb_headroom(skb)) for this packet is 16 so after calling pskb_expand_head() the ip header becomes to be unaligned.  This seems to be a bug in netfilter. Modifying pskb_expand_head() like this can resolve this issue.

Thanks. This looks better.
