Merge branch 'pskb_extract'
Sowmini Varadhan says: ==================== pskb_extract() helper function. This patchset follows up on the discussion in https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg105090.html For RDS-TCP, we have to deal with the full gamut of nonlinear sk_buffs, including all the frag_list variants. Also, the parent skb has to remain unchanged, while the clone is queued for Rx on the PF_RDS socket. Patch 1 of this patchset adds a pskb_extract() function that does all this without the redundant memcpy's in pskb_expand_head() and __pskb_pull_tail(). v2: Marcelo Leitner review comments ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
