[PATCH net v3] net: skbuff: propagate shared-frag marker through frag-transfer helpers

[Hyunwoo Kim]

Three frag-transfer helpers (__pskb_copy_fclone(), skb_try_coalesce(),
and skb_shift()) fail to propagate the SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG bit in
skb_shinfo()->flags when moving frags from source to destination.
__pskb_copy_fclone() defers the rest of the shinfo metadata to
skb_copy_header() after copying frag descriptors, but that helper
only carries over gso_{size,segs,type} and never touches
skb_shinfo()->flags; skb_try_coalesce() and skb_shift() move frag
descriptors directly and leave flags untouched.  As a result, the
destination skb keeps a reference to the same externally-owned or
page-cache-backed pages while reporting skb_has_shared_frag() as
false.

The mismatch is harmful in any in-place writer that uses
skb_has_shared_frag() to decide whether shared pages must be detoured
through skb_cow_data().  ESP input is one such writer (esp4.c,
esp6.c), and a single nft 'dup to <local>' rule -- or any other
nf_dup_ipv4() / xt_TEE caller -- is enough to land a pskb_copy()'d
skb in esp_input() with the marker stripped, letting an unprivileged
user write into the page cache of a root-owned read-only file via
authencesn-ESN stray writes.

Set SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG on the destination whenever frag descriptors
were actually moved from the source.  skb_copy() and skb_copy_expand()
share skb_copy_header() too but linearize all paged data into freshly
allocated head storage and emerge with nr_frags == 0, so
skb_has_shared_frag() returns false on its own; they need no change.

The same omission exists in skb_gro_receive() and skb_gro_receive_list().
The former moves the incoming skb's frag descriptors into the
accumulator's last sub-skb via two paths (a direct frag-move loop and
the head_frag + memcpy path); the latter chains the incoming skb whole
onto p's frag_list.  Downstream skb_segment() reads only
skb_shinfo(p)->flags, and skb_segment_list() reuses each sub-skb's
shinfo as the nskb -- both p and lp must carry the marker.

Fixes: cef401de7be8 ("net: fix possible wrong checksum generation")
Fixes: f4c50a4034e6 ("xfrm: esp: avoid in-place decrypt on shared skb frags")
