Willem de Bruijn 1f8b977ab3 sock: enable MSG_ZEROCOPY
Prepare the datapath for refcounted ubuf_info. Clone ubuf_info with
skb_zerocopy_clone() wherever needed due to skb split, merge, resize
or clone.

Split skb_orphan_frags into two variants. The split, merge, .. paths
support reference counted zerocopy buffers, so do not do a deep copy.
Add skb_orphan_frags_rx for paths that may loop packets to receive
sockets. That is not allowed, as it may cause unbounded latency.
Deep copy all zerocopy copy buffers, ref-counted or not, in this path.

The exact locations to modify were chosen by exhaustively searching
through all code that might modify skb_frag references and/or the
the SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY tx_flags bit.

The changes err on the safe side, in two ways.

(1) legacy ubuf_info paths virtio and tap are not modified. They keep
    a 1:1 ubuf_info to sk_buff relationship. Calls to skb_orphan_frags
    still call skb_copy_ubufs and thus copy frags in this case.

(2) not all copies deep in the stack are addressed yet. skb_shift,
    skb_split and skb_try_coalesce can be refined to avoid copying.
    These are not in the hot path and this patch is hairy enough as
    is, so that is left for future refinement.
