unix_stream_sendmsg() currently uses order-2 allocations,
and we had numerous reports this can fail.
The __GFP_REPEAT flag present in sock_alloc_send_pskb() is
not helping.
This patch extends the work done in commit eb6a24816b247c
("af_unix: reduce high order page allocations) for
datagram sockets.
This opens the possibility of zero copy IO (splice() and
friends)
The trick is to not use skb_pull() anymore in recvmsg() path,
and instead add a @consumed field in UNIXCB() to track amount
of already read payload in the skb.
There is a performance regression for large sends
because of extra page allocations that will be addressed
in a follow-up patch, allowing sock_alloc_send_pskb()
to attempt high order page allocations.
