tcp-zerocopy: Return inq along with tcp receive zerocopy.
This patchset is intended to reduce the number of extra system calls imposed by TCP receive zerocopy. For ping-pong RPC style workloads, this patchset has demonstrated a system call reduction of about 30% when coupled with userspace changes. For applications using edge-triggered epoll, returning inq along with the result of tcp receive zerocopy could remove the need to call recvmsg()=-EAGAIN after a successful zerocopy. Generally speaking, since normally we would need to perform a recvmsg() call for every successful small RPC read via TCP receive zerocopy, returning inq can reduce the number of system calls performed by approximately half.
