This adds handling of MSG_ZEROCOPY flag on transmission path: if this
flag is set and zerocopy transmission is possible, then non-linear skb
will be created and filled with the pages of user's buffer. Pages of
user's buffer are locked in memory by 'get_user_pages()'. Second thing
that this patch does is replace type of skb owning: instead of calling
'skb_set_owner_sk_safe()' it calls 'skb_set_owner_w()'. Reason of this
change is that '__zerocopy_sg_from_iter()' increments 'sk_wmem_alloc'
of socket, so to decrease this field correctly proper skb destructor is
needed: 'sock_wfree()'. This destructor is set by 'skb_set_owner_w()'.

Changelog:
v5(big patchset) -> v1:
* Refactorings of 'if' conditions.
* Remove extra blank line.
* Remove 'frag_off' field unneeded init.
* Add function 'virtio_transport_fill_skb()' which fills both linear
and non-linear skb with provided data.

Before this patch the order of dst_* and src_* fields were reversed
for virtio_transport_alloc_skb(), why are we changing it?

I think putting them back as before (and following the same ordering in
the new functions as well) makes the patch easier to review and the code
easier to maintain.

Thanks,
Stefano
