Extend zerocopy to udp sockets. Allow setting sockopt SO_ZEROCOPY and
interpret flag MSG_ZEROCOPY.
This patch was previously part of the zerocopy RFC patchsets. Zerocopy
is not effective at small MTU. With segmentation offload building
larger datagrams, the benefit of page flipping outweights the cost of
generating a completion notification.

test patch and making skb_orphan_frags_rx same as skb_orphan_frags:

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.
