Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/3] sock: optimise UDP sock_wfree() refcounting

For non SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE sockets, sock_wfree() (atomically) puts
->sk_wmem_alloc twice. It's needed to keep the socket alive while
calling ->sk_write_space() after the first put.

However, some sockets, such as UDP, are freed by RCU
(i.e. SOCK_RCU_FREE) and use already RCU-safe sock_def_write_space().
Carve a fast path for such sockets, put down all refs in one go before
calling sock_def_write_space() but guard the socket from being freed
by an RCU read section.

note: because TCP sockets are marked with SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE it
doesn't add extra checks in its path.
