net-zerocopy: Refactor skb frag fast-forward op.
Refactor skb frag fast-forwarding for tcp receive zerocopy. This is part of a patch set that introduces short-circuited hybrid copies for small receive operations, which results in roughly 33% fewer syscalls for small RPC scenarios. skb_advance_to_frag(), given a skb and an offset into the skb, iterates from the first frag for the skb until we're at the frag specified by the offset. Assuming the offset provided refers to how many bytes in the skb are already read, the returned frag points to the next frag we may read from, while offset_frag is set to the number of bytes from this frag that we have already read. If frag is not null and offset_frag is equal to 0, then we may be able to map this frag's page into the process address space with vm_insert_page(). However, if offset_frag is not equal to 0, then we cannot do so.
