The exploit by Rebel works as advertised. I've confirmed on a non-Ubuntu box
after making some changes.
Attached find a kernel module I've authored that protects from the attack.
I'm sharing it for folks currently on vulnerable systems still waiting on

# make
# insmod nox32recvmmsg.ko
note: rmmod'ing restores original (vulnerable) state.
