skbuff: Fix a potential race while recycling page_pool packets
As Alexander points out, when we are trying to recycle a cloned/expanded
SKB we might trigger a race. The recycling code relies on the
pp_recycle bit to trigger, which we carry over to cloned SKBs.
If that cloned SKB gets expanded or if we get references to the frags,
call skb_release_data() and overwrite skb->head, we are creating separate
instances accessing the same page frags. Since the skb_release_data()
will first try to recycle the frags, there's a potential race between
the original and cloned SKB, since both will have the pp_recycle bit set.
Fix this by explicitly those SKBs not recyclable.
The atomic_sub_return effectively limits us to a single release case,
and when we are calling skb_release_data we are also releasing the
option to perform the recycling, or releasing the pages from the page pool.
Fixes: 6a5bcd84e886 ("page_pool: Allow drivers to hint on SKB recycling")
