I have managed to compile the kernel and get a custom kernel working
on my phone now. And in my netfilter module I am writing I can get the
ip/tcp header, but I am having a hard time getting the data that is
trying to be sent. This is my first time dealing with the sk_buff.
How do I extract the data out of that structure being passed to me?

Thanks
