It is necessary to allow MSG_SENDPAGE_* to be passed into ->sendmsg() to allow sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES) to replace ->sendpage(). Unblocking them in the network protocol, however, allows these flags to be passed in by userspace too[1]. Fix this by marking MSG_SENDPAGE_NOPOLICY, MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST and MSG_SENDPAGE_DECRYPTED as internal flags, which causes sendmsg() to object if they are passed to sendmsg() by userspace. Network protocol ->sendmsg() implementations can then allow them through. Note that it should be possible to remove MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST once sendpage is removed as a whole slew of pages will be passed in in one go by splice through sendmsg, with MSG_MORE being set if it has more data waiting in the pipe.
