[PATCH 12/16] netvm: Set PF_MEMALLOC as appropriate during SKB processing

[Mel Gorman]

In order to make sure pfmemalloc packets receive all memory
needed to proceed, ensure processing of pfmemalloc SKBs happens
under PF_MEMALLOC. This is limited to a subset of protocols that
are expected to be used for writing to swap. Taps are not allowed to
use PF_MEMALLOC as these are expected to communicate with userspace
processes which could be paged out.
