Subject: [RFC PATCH v2] virtio/vsock: allocate multiple skbuffs on tx

This adds small optimization for tx path: instead of allocating single
skbuff on every call to transport, allocate multiple skbuff's until
credit space allows, thus trying to send as much as possible data without
return to af_vsock.c.

 Link to v1:
 https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/2c52aa26-8181-d37a-bccd-a86bd3cbc6e1@sberdevices.ru/

 Changelog:
 v1 -> v2:
 - If sent something, return number of bytes sent (even in
   case of error). Return error only if failed to sent first
   skbuff.
