Yes, as of header before enqueue pulling zero byte datagrams may be
queued. And these need to be delivered, among other reason for their
cmsg metadata.

Good catch. The condition in sk_busy_loop_end is not easy to address.
Since busy poll is an optimization and poll at offset rare, one way
out may be to amend the __sk_can_busy_loop test in __skb_recv_udp to
disallow busy polling together with peek at offset.

The difference in behavior betwee __skb_try_recv_datagram and
__skb_recv_datagram also reminds of Alexei's earlier report (without
busy polling, seemingly with a list corruption introduced elsewhere)
in

  [net-next,1/3] net/sock: factor out dequeue/peek with offset code
