net: allow alloc_skb_with_frags() to use MAX_SKB_FRAGS
[ Upstream commit ca9f9cdc4de97d0221100b11224738416696163c ] Currently, alloc_skb_with_frags() will only fill (MAX_SKB_FRAGS - 1) slots. I think it should use all MAX_SKB_FRAGS slots, as callers of alloc_skb_with_frags() will size their allocation of frags based on MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This issue was discovered via a test patch that sets 'order' to 0 in alloc_skb_with_frags(), which effectively tests/simulates high fragmentation. In this case sendmsg() on unix sockets will fail every time for large allocations. If the PAGE_SIZE is 4K, then data_len will request 68K or 17 pages, but alloc_skb_with_frags() can only allocate 64K in this case or 16 pages.
