If @from\nhas SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG set, the resulting @to skb can contain the same\nexternally-owned or page-cache-backed frags, but the shared-frag marker\nis currently lost.\n\nThat breaks the invariant relied on by later in-place writers.  In\nparticular, ESP input checks skb_has_shared_frag() before deciding\nwhether an uncloned nonlinear skb can skip skb_cow_data().  If TCP\nreceive coalescing has moved shared frags into an unmarked skb, ESP can\nsee skb_has_shared_frag() as false and decrypt in place over page-cache\nbacked frags.\n\nPropagate SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG when skb_try_coalesce() transfers paged\nfrags.  The tailroom copy path does not need the marker because it copies\nbytes into @to's linear data rather than transferring frag descriptors.",
