Do we understand how these packets are generated? Else it seems this
might be papering over a deeper problem.

The stack should not create GSO packets less than or equal to
skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size. See for instance the check in
tcp_gso_segment after pulling the tcp header:

        mss = skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size;
        if (unlikely(skb->len <= mss))
                goto out;

What is the gso_type, and does it include SKB_GSO_DODGY?
