Merge branch 'net-ICW-sendmsg-recvmsg'

Paolo Abeni says:

====================
net: use ICW for sk_proto->{send,recv}msg

This series extends ICW usage to one of the few remaining spots in fast-path
still hitting per packet retpoline overhead, namely the sk_proto->{send,recv}msg
calls.

The first 3 patches in this series refactor the existing code so that applying
the ICW macros is straight-forward: we demux inet_{recv,send}msg in ipv4 and
ipv6 variants so that each of them can easily select the appropriate TCP or UDP
direct call. While at it, a new helper is created to avoid excessive code
duplication, and the current ICWs for inet_{recv,send}msg are adjusted
accordingly.

The last 2 patches really introduce the new ICW use-case, respectively for the
ipv6 and the ipv4 code path.

This gives up to 5% performance improvement under UDP flood, and smaller but
measurable gains for TCP RR workloads.

v1 -> v2:
 - drop inet6_{recv,send}msg declaration from header file,
   prefer ICW macro instead
 - avoid unneeded reclaration for udp_sendmsg, as suggested by Willem
