skbuff: introduce skb_expand_head()
Like skb_realloc_headroom(), new helper increases headroom of specified skb. Unlike skb_realloc_headroom(), it does not allocate a new skb if possible; copies skb->sk on new skb when as needed and frees original skb in case of failures. This helps to simplify ip[6]_finish_output2() and a few other similar cases. Signed-off-by: Vasily Averin <vvs@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
