[Devel] [PATCH rh7 2/2] net/sock: teach sock_kmalloc() to call kvmalloc() when possible

sock_setsockopt()
sk_attach_filter()
sock_kmalloc()
Memory size to be allocated depends on the number of rules provided by
userspace, but not more than net.core.optmem_max (20480 by default),
which still allows to allocate 3rd order pages via kmalloc() =>
it's better to substitute it with kvmalloc().
But sock_kmalloc() can be called with GFP_ATOMIC from some places,
so we cannot unconditionally call kvmalloc() instead of kmalloc().
Hopefully sk_attach_filter() calls sock_kmalloc() with GFP_KERNEL,
so kvmalloc() can be used there.
=> use kvmalloc_check() which calls kvmalloc() if it's allowed
by provided flags.
