The nasty memory allocation problem in napi_alloc_skb() you've seen before ..
If you can't reproduce it with 4.20 then a potential cause may be here:
5317d5c6d47e ("r8169: use napi_consume_skb where possible")
At least at a first and second glance I don't see how usage of both calls
could be wrong. So maybe the root cause is somewhere deeper inside.
At least it would be worth trying with the mentioned commit reverted.
