Offload packets may be DMAed long after their SGE Tx descriptors are done
so they must remain mapped until they are freed rather than until their
descriptors are freed.  Unmap such packets through an skb destructor.

this is questionable and sounds like you are working around a bug. I can't think of another driver that uses skb destructors, and I could have sworn that skb destructors were not for drivers to use anyway
