net: Introduce sk_use_task_frag in struct sock.
Sockets that can be used while recursing into memory reclaim, like those used by network block devices and file systems, mustn't use current->task_frag: if the current process is already using it, then the inner memory reclaim call would corrupt the task_frag structure. To avoid this, sk_page_frag() uses ->sk_allocation to detect sockets that mustn't use current->task_frag, assuming that those used during memory reclaim had their allocation constraints reflected in ->sk_allocation. This unfortunately doesn't cover all cases: in an attempt to remove all usage of GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO, sunrpc stopped setting these flags in ->sk_allocation, and used memalloc_nofs critical sections instead. This breaks the sk_page_frag() heuristic since the allocation constraints are now stored in current->flags, which sk_page_frag() can't read without risking triggering a cache miss and slowing down TCP's fast path. This patch creates a new field in struct sock, named sk_use_task_frag, which sockets with memory reclaim constraints can set to false if they can't safely use current->task_frag. In such cases, sk_page_frag() now always returns the socket's page_frag (->sk_frag). The first user is sunrpc, which needs to avoid using current->task_frag but can keep ->sk_allocation set to GFP_KERNEL otherwise. Eventually, it might be possible to simplify sk_page_frag() by only testing ->sk_use_task_frag and avoid relying on the ->sk_allocation heuristic entirely (assuming other sockets will set ->sk_use_task_frag according to their constraints in the future). The new ->sk_use_task_frag field is placed in a hole in struct sock and belongs to a cache line shared with ->sk_shutdown. Therefore it should be hot and shouldn't have negative performance impacts on TCP's fast path (sk_shutdown is tested just before the while() loop in tcp_sendmsg_locked()).
