[PATCH] net: Fix zero-copy head len calculation.

[PATCH] net: Fix zero-copy head len calculation.

[Pravin B Shelar]

From: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@ovn.org>

In some cases skb head could be locked and entire header
data is pulled from skb. When skb_zerocopy() called in such cases,
following BUG is triggered. This patch fixes it by copying entire
skb in such cases.
This could be optimized incase this is performance bottleneck.
