OVS flow extract uses this function to extract flow upto L4, so
skb_header_pointer() is not saving any copy operation.

ok, I see advantage of using skb_header_pointer() in this case, but
replacing all check_header() with skb_header_pointer() would add lot
of copy operation in flow extract. Anyways for this use case
skb_header_pointer() is fine.
