Willem de Bruijn 3ece782693 sock: skb_copy_ubufs support for compound pages
Refine skb_copy_ubufs to support compound pages. With upcoming TCP
zerocopy sendmsg, such fragments may appear.

The existing code replaces each page one for one. Splitting each
compound page into an independent number of regular pages can result
in exceeding limit MAX_SKB_FRAGS if data is not exactly page aligned.

Instead, fill all destination pages but the last to PAGE_SIZE.
Split the existing alloc + copy loop into separate stages:
1. compute bytelength and minimum number of pages to store this.
2. allocate
3. copy, filling each page except the last to PAGE_SIZE bytes
4. update skb frag array

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
