net: Add and use skb_copy_datagram_msg() helper.
This encapsulates all of the skb_copy_datagram_iovec() callers with call argument signature "skb, offset, msghdr->msg_iov, length". When we move to iov_iters in the networking, the iov_iter object will sit in the msghdr. Having a helper like this means there will be less places to touch during that transformation. Based upon descriptions and patch from Al Viro. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
