I have noticed this[1] and have a patch in my current patchset for
fixing this.  IMHO is is not so important fix right now, as the effect
is that you currently only lose 32 bytes of headroom.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/158446621887.702578.17234304084556809684.stgit@firesoul/

Fixing this now is going to be annoying and cause merge conflicts for
my patchset.  If you insist on fixing this now, you need to improve
commit message and also fix patch, see below.

You also need update/remove the other lines doing this.
