Jakub Sitnicki 8989d328df net: Helper to move packet data and metadata after skb_push/pull
Lay groundwork for fixing BPF helpers available to TC(X) programs.

When skb_push() or skb_pull() is called in a TC(X) ingress BPF program, the
skb metadata must be kept in front of the MAC header. Otherwise, BPF
programs using the __sk_buff->data_meta pseudo-pointer lose access to it.

Introduce a helper that moves both metadata and a specified number of
packet data bytes together, suitable as a drop-in replacement for
memmove().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
