packet: copy user buffers before orphan or clone
tpacket_snd sends packets with user pages linked into skb frags. It notifies that pages can be reused when the skb is released by setting skb->destructor to tpacket_destruct_skb. This can cause data corruption if the skb is orphaned (e.g., on transmit through veth) or cloned (e.g., on mirror to another psock). Create a kernel-private copy of data in these cases, same as tun/tap zerocopy transmission. Reuse that infrastructure: mark the skb as SKBTX_ZEROCOPY_FRAG, which will trigger copy in skb_orphan_frags(_rx). Unlike other zerocopy packets, do not set shinfo destructor_arg to struct ubuf_info. tpacket_destruct_skb already uses that ptr to notify when the original skb is released and a timestamp is recorded. Do not change this timestamp behavior. The ubuf_info->callback is not needed anyway, as no zerocopy notification is expected. Mark destructor_arg as not-a-uarg by setting the lower bit to 1. The resulting value is not a valid ubuf_info pointer, nor a valid tpacket_snd frame address. Add skb_zcopy_.._nouarg helpers for this. The fix relies on features introduced in commit 52267790ef52 ("sock: add MSG_ZEROCOPY"), so can be backported as is only to 4.14.
