"When skb_metadata_set() is called"? I think that may cause perf regressions unless we merge major optimizations at the same time? Should we defer touching the drivers until we have a PoC and some idea whether allocating the extension right away is manageable or we are better off doing it via a kfunc in TC (after GRO)? To be clear putting the metadata in an extension right away would indeed be much cleaner, just not sure how much of the perf hit we can optimize away..
