+Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: implement a central TX reallocation procedure
+
+At the moment, taggers are left with the task of ensuring that the skb
+headers are writable (which they aren't, if the frames were cloned for
+TX timestamping, for flooding by the bridge, etc), and that there is
+enough space in the skb data area for the DSA tag to be pushed.
+
+Moreover, the life of tail taggers is even harder, because they need to
+ensure that short frames have enough padding, a problem that normal
+taggers don't have.
+
+The principle of the DSA framework is that everything except for the
+most intimate hardware specifics (like in this case, the actual packing
+of the DSA tag bits) should be done inside the core, to avoid having
+code paths that are very rarely tested.
+
+So provide a TX reallocation procedure that should cover the known needs
+of DSA today.
+
+Note that this patch also gives the network stack a good hint about the
+headroom/tailroom it's going to need. Up till now it wasn't doing that.
+So the reallocation procedure should really be there only for the
+exceptional cases, and for cloned packets which need to be unshared.
