Subject: [PATCH net] RDS-TCP: Recover correctly from pskb_pull()/pksb_trim()
 failure in rds_tcp_data_recv


Either of pskb_pull() or pskb_trim() may fail under low memory conditions.
If rds_tcp_data_recv() ignores such failures, the application will
receive corrupted data because the skb has not been correctly
carved to the RDS datagram size.

Avoid this by handling pskb_pull/pskb_trim failure in the same
manner as the skb_clone failure: bail out of rds_tcp_data_recv(), and
retry via the deferred call to rds_send_worker() that gets set up on
ENOMEM from rds_tcp_read_sock()
