David S. Miller 7344ba039f Merge branch 'vhost-skb-leaks'
Wei Xu says:

====================
vhost: fix a few skb leaks

Matthew found a roughly 40% tcp throughput regression with commit
c67df11f(vhost_net: try batch dequing from skb array) as discussed
in the following thread:
https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg187936.html

v4:
- fix zero iov iterator count in tap/tap_do_read()(Jason)
- don't put tun in case of EBADFD(Jason)
- Replace msg->msg_control with new 'skb' when calling tun/tap_do_read()

v3:
- move freeing skb from vhost to tun/tap recvmsg() to not
  confuse the callers.

v2:
- add Matthew as the reporter, thanks matthew.
- moving zero headcount check ahead instead of defer consuming skb
  due to jason and mst's comment.
- add freeing skb in favor of recvmsg() fails.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
