Nice job. Since tcpdump sees corrupted data, and we don't know if it's
before or after hitting the driver I'd suggest to try full skb_copy()
yet. So could you try if with your patch + the patch below tcpdump
still breaks these things?

BTW, I wonder what IXP400 config options do you use (especially
CONFIG_IXP400_ETH_SKB_RECYCLE)?
