Pablo Neira Ayuso c05cdb1b86 netlink: allow large data transfers from user-space 
I can hit ENOBUFS in the sendmsg() path with a large batch that is
composed of many netlink messages. Here that limit is 8 MBytes of
skbuff data area as kmalloc does not manage to get more than that.

While discussing atomic rule-set for nftables with Patrick McHardy,
we decided to put all rule-set updates that need to be applied
atomically in one single batch to simplify the existing approach.
However, as explained above, the existing netlink code limits us
to a maximum of ~20000 rules that fit in one single batch without
hitting ENOBUFS. iptables does not have such limitation as it is
using vmalloc.

This patch adds netlink_alloc_large_skb() which is only used in
the netlink_sendmsg() path. It uses alloc_skb if the memory
requested is <= one memory page, that should be the common case
for most subsystems, else vmalloc for higher memory allocations.
