Pravin B Shelar b508b652d4 net: Fix zero-copy head len calculation.
[ Upstream commit a17ad0961706244dce48ec941f7e476a38c0e727 ]

In some cases skb head could be locked and entire header
data is pulled from skb. When skb_zerocopy() called in such cases,
following BUG is triggered. This patch fixes it by copying entire
skb in such cases.
This could be optimized incase this is performance bottleneck.

README

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.
