For drivers to support partial offload of a filter's action list,
add support for action miss to specify an action instance to
continue from in sw.

CT action in particular can't be fully offloaded, as new connections
need to be handled in software. This imposes other limitations on
the actions that can be offloaded together with the CT action, such
as packet modifications.

Assign each action on a filter's action list a unique miss_cookie
which drivers can then use to fill action_miss part of the tc skb
extension. On getting back this miss_cookie, find the action
instance with relevant cookie and continue classifying from there.

pskb_may_pull() can fail for two different reasons.

Provide pskb_may_pull_reason() helper to distinguish
between these reasons.

It returns:

SKB_NOT_DROPPED_YET           : Success
SKB_DROP_REASON_PKT_TOO_SMALL : packet too small
SKB_DROP_REASON_NOMEM         : skb-&gt;head could not be resized

<title>net: skbuff: drop the word head from skb cache</title>

skbuff_head_cache is misnamed (perhaps for historical reasons?)
because it does not hold heads. Head is the buffer which skb-&gt;data
points to, and also where shinfo lives. struct sk_buff is a metadata
structure, not the head.

Eric recently added skb_small_head_cache (which allocates actual
head buffers), let that serve as an excuse to finally clean this up :)

Leave the user-space visible name intact, it could possibly be uAPI.

 SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info))

Use of SKB_HEAD_ALIGN() will allow to clean them.

First user of skb_poison_list is in kfree_skb_list_reason, to catch bugs
earlier like introduced in commit eedade12f4cb ("net: kfree_skb_list use
kmem_cache_free_bulk"). For completeness mentioned bug have been fixed in
commit f72ff8b81ebc ("net: fix kfree_skb_list use of skb_mark_not_on_list").

In case of a bug like mentioned commit we would have seen OOPS with:
 general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdead000000000870
And content of one the registers e.g. R13: dead000000000800

In this case skb-&gt;len is at offset 112 bytes (0x70) why fault happens at
 0x800+0x70 = 0x870

linux/hrtimer.h include was added because apparently it used
to contain ktime related code. This is no longer the case
and we include linux/time.h explicitly.

Sadly this change is currently a noop because linux/dma-mapping.h
and net/page_pool.h pull in half of the universe.

splice.h is included since commit a60e3cc7c929 ("net: make
skb_splice_bits more configureable") but really even then
all we needed is some forward declarations. Most of that
code is now gone, and remaining has fwd declarations.

linux/sched.h was added for skb_mstamp_* (all the way back
before linux/sched.h got split and linux/sched/clock.h created).
We don't need it in skbuff.h any more.

Sadly this change is currently a noop because linux/dma-mapping.h
