xen/netback: Ensure protocol headers don't fall in the non-linear area
In some cases, the frontend may send a packet where the protocol headers are spread across multiple slots. This would result in netback creating an skb where the protocol headers spill over into the non-linear area. Some drivers and NICs don't handle this properly resulting in an interface reset or worse. This issue was introduced by the removal of an unconditional skb pull in the tx path to improve performance. Fix this without reintroducing the pull by setting up grant copy ops for as many slots as needed to reach the XEN_NETBACK_TX_COPY_LEN size. Adjust the rest of the code to handle multiple copy operations per skb. This is XSA-423 / CVE-2022-3643.
