Look at packet-tcp.c around line 1600:

roughly

you create a new tvb with your data:
next_tvb = tvb_new_real_data(data, datalen, datalen);

attached it to the main tvb, mainly for house keeping (freeing and so
on):
tvb_set_child_real_data_tvbuff(tvb, next_tvb);

and then create a new data source:
add_new_data_source(pinfo, next_tvb, "my data");
