net: test nouarg before dereferencing zerocopy pointers
Zerocopy skbs without completion notification were added for packet sockets with PACKET_TX_RING user buffers. Those signal completion through the TP_STATUS_USER bit in the ring. Zerocopy annotation was added only to avoid premature notification after clone or orphan, by triggering a copy on these paths for these packets. The mechanism had to define a special "no-uarg" mode because packet sockets already use skb_uarg(skb) == skb_shinfo(skb)->destructor_arg for a different pointer. Before deferencing skb_uarg(skb), verify that it is a real pointer.
