Commit fdd80c39b1822db6c8b5c (datapath: Check gso_type for correct
sk_buff in queue_gso_packets().) could be related, but I am not
certain.  It's the mostly likely known-fixed problem I see in a quick
scan of branch-1.4 commits following cc8ccb5.

Could you provide a log excerpt that includes some of these messages?
