This isn't as bad as the sk_buff.cb limitation so I'm not going to
worry too much about it, but just to be safe I think we should put a
compile-time check to ensure that the local tag is within the bounds
of the IPv4 option limit.  If we don't put a check I worry that there
is a chance someone could get a very rude surprise at some point in
the future (yes, this is highly unlikely, but still possible).
