In the critical scenario, rx-gro-list GRO-ed packets are fed, via a
bridge, both to the local input path and to an egress device (tun).

The segmentation of such packets unsafely writes to the cloned skbs
with shared heads.

This change addresses the issue by uncloning as needed the
to-be-segmented skbs.
