net: take care of cloned skbs in tcp_try_coalesce()
Before stealing fragments or skb head, we must make sure skbs are not cloned. Alexander was worried about destination skb being cloned : In bridge setups, a driver could be fooled if skb->data_len would not match skb nr_frags. If source skb is cloned, we must take references on pages instead. Bug happened using tcpdump (if not using mmap()) Introduce kfree_skb_partial() helper to cleanup code.
