net: test tailroom before appending to linear skb
[ Upstream commit 113f99c3358564a0647d444c2ae34e8b1abfd5b9 ]
Device features may change during transmission. In particular with
corking, a device may toggle scatter-gather in between allocating
and writing to an skb.
Do not unconditionally assume that !NETIF_F_SG at write time implies
that the same held at alloc time and thus the skb has sufficient
tailroom.
This issue predates git history.
