mainlining shenanigans

Per-packet metadata required to write the MPTCP DSS option is written to the skb_ext area. One write to the socket may contain more than one packet of data, which is copied to page fragments and mapped in to MPTCP DSS segments with size determined by the available page fragments and the maximum mapping length allowed by the MPTCP specification. If do_tcp_sendpages() splits a DSS segment in to multiple skbs, that's ok - the later skbs can either have duplicated DSS mapping information or none at all, and the receiver can handle that. The current implementation uses the subflow frag cache and tcp sendpages to avoid excessive code duplication. More work is required to ensure that it works correctly under memory pressure and to support MPTCP-level retransmissions. The MPTCP DSS checksum is not yet implemented.

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.
