Pavel Begunkov says:

====================
implement io_uring notification (ubuf_info) stacking (net part)

To have per request buffer notifications each zerocopy io_uring send
request allocates a new ubuf_info. However, as an skb can carry only
one uarg, it may force the stack to create many small skbs hurting
performance in many ways.

The patchset implements notification, i.e. an io_uring's ubuf_info
extension, stacking. It attempts to link ubuf_info's into a list,
allowing to have multiple of them per skb.

liburing/examples/send-zerocopy shows up 6 times performance improvement
for TCP with 4KB bytes per send, and levels it with MSG_ZEROCOPY. Without
the patchset it requires much larger sends to utilise all potential.

bytes  | before | after (Kqps)
1200   | 195    | 1023
4000   | 193    | 1386
8000   | 154    | 1058
