net: Revert "net: add function to allocate sk_buff head without data …
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
…area"

It was added for netlink mmap tx, there are no callers in the tree.
The commit also added a check for skb->head != NULL in kfree_skb path,
remove that too -- all skbs ought to have skb->head set.
