Jakub Sitnicki 290fc0be09 net: Preserve metadata on pskb_expand_head
pskb_expand_head() copies headroom, including skb metadata, into the newly
allocated head, but then clears the metadata. As a result, metadata is lost
when BPF helpers trigger an skb head reallocation.

Let the skb metadata remain in the newly created copy of head.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
