David Howells c729ed6f5b net: Use sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES) not sendpage in skb_send_sock()
Use sendmsg() with MSG_SPLICE_PAGES rather than sendpage in
skb_send_sock().  This causes pages to be spliced from the source iterator
if possible.

This allows ->sendpage() to be replaced by something that can handle
multiple multipage folios in a single transaction.

Note that this could perhaps be improved to fill out a bvec array with all
the frags and then make a single sendmsg call, possibly sticking the header
on the front also.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
