net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb()
netdev_alloc_skb() is used by networks driver in their RX path to allocate an skb to receive an incoming frame. With recent skb->head_frag infrastructure, it makes sense to change netdev_alloc_skb() to use build_skb() and a frag allocator. This permits a zero copy splice(socket->pipe), and better GRO or TCP coalescing. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
