commit 126285651b7f ("Merge ra.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net")
accidentally reverted the effect of
commit 1a8024239da ("virtio-net: fix for skb_over_panic inside big mode")
on drivers/net/virtio_net.c

As a result, users of crosvm (which is using large packet mode)
are experiencing crashes with 5.14-rc1 and above that do not
occur with 5.13.

Crash trace:

See
https://lore.kernel.org/r/5edaa2b7c2fe4abd0347b8454b2ac032b6694e2c.camel%40collabora.com
for the report.

Apply the original 1a8024239da ("virtio-net: fix for skb_over_panic inside big mode")
again, the original logic still holds:

In virtio-net's large packet mode, there is a hole in the space behind
buf.

hdr_padded_len - hdr_len

We must take this into account when calculating tailroom.

David, I think we need this in stable, too.
