Hi Zoltan:

I just proposed a patch to support Linux 3.13 and 3.14, and this
includes your patch
folded in. The mailing lists server appears to be down now, otherwise
I would have
included a link. But I've taken care of the skbuff API change as well.
Feedback on
this patch is appreciated!

Thanks,
Kyle
