[RFC,net-next v2 6/8] net: ip: Support MSG_NTCOPY

From: Joe Damato
Date: Sun Jun 12 2022 - 05:01:04 EST


Support nontemporal copies of IP data when applications set the
MSG_NTCOPY flag and checksumming is offloaded.

ip_generic_getfrag is used by UDP and raw sockets, so this change
effectively enables MSG_NTCOPY support for both.
