Subject: [PATCH 5.4 36/85] tcp: use sendpage_ok() to detect misused .sendpage

From: Coly Li <colyli@...e.de>

commit cf83a17edeeb36195596d2dae060a7c381db35f1 upstream.

commit a10674bf2406 ("tcp: detecting the misuse of .sendpage for Slab
objects") adds the checks for Slab pages, but the pages don't have
page_count are still missing from the check.

Network layer's sendpage method is not designed to send page_count 0
pages neither, therefore both PageSlab() and page_count() should be
both checked for the sending page. This is exactly what sendpage_ok()
does.

This patch uses sendpage_ok() in do_tcp_sendpages() to detect misused
.sendpage, to make the code more robust.

Fixes: a10674bf2406 ("tcp: detecting the misuse of .sendpage for Slab objects")
