tcp: make connect() mem charging friendly
While working on sk_forward_alloc problems reported by Denys Fedoryshchenko, we found that tcp connect() (and fastopen) do not call sk_wmem_schedule() for SYN packet (and/or SYN/DATA packet), so sk_forward_alloc is negative while connect is in progress. We can fix this by calling regular sk_stream_alloc_skb() both for the SYN packet (in tcp_connect()) and the syn_data packet in tcp_send_syn_data() Then, tcp_send_syn_data() can avoid copying syn_data as we simply can manipulate syn_data->cb[] to remove SYN flag (and increment seq) Instead of open coding memcpy_fromiovecend(), simply use this helper. This leaves in socket write queue clean fast clone skbs. This was tested against our fastopen packetdrill tests.
