selftests: fix OOM in msg_zerocopy selftest
[ Upstream commit af2b7e5b741aaae9ffbba2c660def434e07aa241 ]
In selftests/net/msg_zerocopy.c, it has a while loop keeps calling sendmsg
on a socket with MSG_ZEROCOPY flag, and it will recv the notifications
until the socket is not writable. Typically, it will start the receiving
process after around 30+ sendmsgs. However, as the introduction of commit
dfa2f0483360 ("tcp: get rid of sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale"), the sender is
always writable and does not get any chance to run recv notifications.
The selftest always exits with OUT_OF_MEMORY because the memory used by
opt_skb exceeds the net.core.optmem_max. Meanwhile, it could be set to a
different value to trigger OOM on older kernels too.
Thus, we introduce "cfg_notification_limit" to force sender to receive
notifications after some number of sendmsgs.
