Well, fact is that your crash is happening in skb_copy().
Frank patch is OK. I suspect using skb_clone() would work too, so if these skb were fclone ready, chance of an GFP_ATOMIC allocation error would be smaller.
So something is providing a wrong skb at the very beginning.
You could try to do a early skb_copy to catch the bug and see in the stack trace what produced this buggy skb.
