syzbot reports a memory leak in pppoe_sendmsg [1].

The problem is in the pppoe_recvmsg() function that handles errors
in the wrong order. For the skb_recv_datagram() function, check
the pointer to skb for NULL first, and then check the 'error' variable,
because the skb_recv_datagram() function can set 'error'
to -EAGAIN in a loop but return a correct pointer to socket buffer
after a number of attempts, though 'error' remains set to -EAGAIN.

skb_recv_datagram
      __skb_recv_datagram          // Loop. if (err == -EAGAIN) then
                                   // go to the next loop iteration
          __skb_try_recv_datagram  // if (skb != NULL) then return 'skb'
                                   // else if a signal is received then
                                   // return -EAGAIN

<title>net/pppoe: make number of hash bits configurable</title>

When running large numbers of pppoe connections, a bucket size of 16 may
be too small and 256 may be more appropriate.  This sacrifices some RAM
but should result in faster processing of incoming PPPoE frames.

On our systems we run upwards of 150 PPPoE connections at any point in
time, and we suspect we're starting to see the effects of this small
number of buckets.

The legal values according to pppoe.c is anything that when 8 is divided
by that results in a modulo of 0, ie, 1, 2, 4 and 8.

The size of the per-underlying-interface structure is:

sizeof(rwlock_t) + sizeof(pppox_sock*) * PPPOE_HASH_SIZE.

Assuming a 64-bit pointer this will result in just over a 2KiB structure
for PPPOE_HASH_BITS=8, which will likely result in a 4KiB allocation,
which for us at least is acceptable.

Not sure what the minimum allocation size is, and thus if values of 1
and 2 truly make sense.  Default results in historic sizing and
behaviour.

skb_recv_datagram() has two parameters 'flags' and 'noblock' that are
merged inside skb_recv_datagram() by 'flags | (noblock ? MSG_DONTWAIT : 0)'

As 'flags' may contain MSG_DONTWAIT as value most callers split the 'flags'
into 'flags' and 'noblock' with finally obsolete bit operations like this:

skb_recv_datagram(sk, flags &amp; ~MSG_DONTWAIT, flags &amp; MSG_DONTWAIT, &amp;rc);

And this is not even done consistently with the 'flags' parameter.

This patch removes the obsolete and costly splitting into two parameters
and only performs bit operations when really needed on the caller side.

One missing conversion thankfully reported by kernel test robot. I missed
to enable kunit tests to build the mctp code.
