This patch replaces the struct virtio_vsock_pkt with struct sk_buff.

Using sk_buff in vsock benefits it by a) allowing vsock to be extended
for socket-related features like sockmap, b) vsock may in the future
use other sk_buff-dependent kernel capabilities, and c) vsock shares
commonality with other socket types.

This patch is taken from the original series found here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1660362668.git.bobby.eshleman@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Small-sized packet throughput improved by ~5% (from 18.53 Mb/s to 19.51
Mb/s). Tested using uperf, 16B payloads, 64 threads, 100s, averaged from
10 test runs (n=10). This improvement is likely due to packet merging.

Large-sized packet throughput decreases ~9% (from 27.25 Gb/s to 25.04
Gb/s). Tested using uperf, 64KB payloads, 64 threads, 100s, averaged
from 10 test runs (n=10).

Medium-sized packet throughput decreases ~5% (from 4.0 Gb/s to 3.81
Gb/s). Tested using uperf, 4k to 8k payload sizes picked randomly
according to normal distribution, 64 threads, 100s, averaged from 10
test runs (n=10).

All tests done in nested VMs (virtual host and virtual guest).

Changes in v2:
- Use alloc_skb() directly instead of sock_alloc_send_pskb() to minimize
 uAPI changes.
- Do not marshal errors to -ENOMEM for non-virtio implementations.
- No longer a part of the original series
- Some code cleanup and refactoring
- Include performance stats

This extra copy (and maybe also the call to can_merge) could be responsible for the perf drop. I understand why we have it, though, you could give it a try by avoiding merging and see what happens to performance.

Maybe we can split this patch and move change in a separate patch of the same series, and in the cover report the performance result incrementally with only the first patch applied and with first and second.

Not for this patch, but if we implement this change, it would be nice to have APIs that all transports can re-use. (Like we do in vsock_loopback which has nothing to do with virtio, but we had reused virtio_vsock_pkt for convenience)

Good job so far!

Thanks,
Stefano
