tcp: reject non zerocopy devmem tx

Browse source

Devmem tcp tx doesn't work without zero-copy, however it's not currently
enforced if NETIF_F_SG isn't present. In this case, tcp_sendmsg_locked()
will try the copy path and try to copy data from an iovec which consists
of offsets into the dma-buf and would normally fail. Moreover,
d9c56501c7 ("net: tcp: block mixing readable and unreadable frags")
relies on that and assumes that the devmem binding is present IFF we're
using the zero-copy path, which can be used to mix net-iov and pages in
a single skb, and break invariants. Let's reject devmem tx without
zero-copy.

Note, the parameter check the patch is modifying is too loose, we can
create an io_uring request with dmabuf_id and all ZC flags, but which
won't have the binding. We replace it with stricter validation.

Fixes: d9c56501c7 ("net: tcp: block mixing readable and unreadable frags")
