I have added the following explanation in the comments: Regarding the judgment condition, I aligned it with the condition in skb_zerocopy_iter_stream().
syzbot reported the issue in the linux-next repository, and I also tested and created the patch using the linux-next source code repository. Therefore, I added the subject net-next tag. If you think adding the net subject tag directly is acceptable, I will adjust it in the next version of the patch.
