skb_zerocopy can copy elements of the frags array between skbs, but it doesn't
orphan them. Also, it doesn't handle errors, so this patch takes care of that
as well, and modify the callers accordingly. skb_tx_error() is also added to
the callers so they will signal the failed delivery towards the creator of the
skb.

Applied, thanks Zoltan.

Actually, Zoltan, you have to fix this:

net/core/skbuff.c: In function ʽskb_zerocopyʼ:
net/core/skbuff.c:2172:2: warning: passing argument 1 of ʽskb_orphan_fragsʼ discards

Ok, resubmitted. 'from' is now not a const parameter, because skb->pfmemalloc might change.
