I found that bpf kselftest sockhash::test_txmsg_cork_hangs in
test_sockmap.c triggers a kernel NULL pointer dereference:

This is caused by tcp_bpf_sendmsg() returning a larger value(12289) than
size(8192), which causes the while loop in splice_to_socket() to release
an uninitialized pipe buf.
The underlying cause is that this code assumes sk_msg_memcopy_from_iter()
will copy all bytes upon success but it actually might only copy part of
it.
This series change sk_msg_memcopy_from_iter() to return copied bytes on
success and tcp_bpf_sendmsg() to use the real copied bytes instead of
assuming all bytes gets copied.
