Subject: [RESEND PATCH net-next v1 00/13] Generic zcopy_* functions

[resending to fix From: lines]

This is set of cleanup patches for zerocopy which are intended
to allow a introduction of a different zerocopy implementation.

The top level API will use the skb_zcopy_*() functions, while
the current TCP specific zerocopy ends up using msg_zerocopy_*()
calls.

There should be no functional changes from these patches.

Patch 1: remove dead function
Patch 2: simplify sock_zerocopy_put
Patch 3: push status/refcounts into sock_zerocopy_callback
Patch 4: replace sock_zerocopy_put with skb_zcopy_put
Patch 5: rename sock_zerocopy_get
Patch 6:
  Add an optional skb parameter to callback, allowing access to
  the attached skb from the callback.
Patch 7:
  Add skb_zcopy_put_abort, and move zerocopy logic into the
  callback function.  There unfortunately is still a check
  against the callback type here.
Patch 8: Relocate skb_zcopy_clear() in skb_release_data()
Patch 9: rename sock_zerocopy_ to msg_zerocopy_
Patch 10:
  Move zerocopy bits from tx_flags into flags for clarity.
  These bits will be used in the RX path in the future.
Patch 11:
  Set the skb flags from the ubuf being attached, instead
  of a fixed value, allowing different initialization types.
Patch 12: Replace open-coded assignments with skb_zcopy_init()
Patch 13: Rename skb_zcopy_{get|put} to net_zcopy_{get|put}
