[PATCH] net: bypass ->sendpage for slab pages

[Christoph Hellwig]

Sending Slab or tail pages into ->sendpage will cause really strange
delayed oops.  Prevent it right in the networking code instead of
requiring drivers to guess the exact conditions where sendpage works.

Based on a patch from Coly Li <colyli@xxxxxxx>.
