mainlining shenanigans
4363023d26
When skb has a frag_list its possible for skb_to_sgvec() to fail. This
happens when the scatterlist has fewer elements to store pages than would
be needed for the initial skb plus any of its frags.
This case appears rare, but is possible when running an RX parser/verdict
programs exposed to the internet. Currently, when this happens we throw
an error, break the pipe, and kfree the msg. This effectively breaks the
application or forces it to do a retry.
Lets catch this case and handle it by doing an skb_linearize() on any
skb we receive with frags. At this point skb_to_sgvec should not fail
because the failing conditions would require frags to be in place.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
