If I understand your question correctly, there is nothing special that you
need to do.  The driver owns the SKB once it's passed in to your transmit
function; you are free to hang onto it for a while if that's what you need
to do.  You'll want to take care not to stop the queue while holding
packets, but I assume you've thought of that.
