Previously these paths would return "RMNET_MAP_CONSUMED":

Causing this code to return.
Now, instead the code jumps to fail:

Which frees the SKB.
This is a behavioral change, perhaps a bug fix.
Well, nobody knows because you do not explain this at all in your
commit message.
Do not mix functional changes with cleanups. If you want to change how
freeing the SKB is done, do it in a separate change from the patch that
removes this enumeration.
Thank you.
