rxrpc: linearize incoming DATA packet when it has paged frags

Sibling fix to the xfrm/esp patch shipped in 611.54.2. rxrpc.ko is
built but shipped only via kernel-modules-partner; users who install
that subpackage are exposed without this fix.

From: Andrew Lukoshko <alukoshko@almalinux.org>
Subject: [PATCH AlmaLinux 9] rxrpc: linearize incoming DATA packet when it has paged frags
AlmaLinux-specific backport of the intent of the upstream rxrpc fix
posted at https://lore.kernel.org/all/afKV2zGR6rrelPC7@v4bel/
(sibling to upstream commit f4c50a4034e6 in the ESP/xfrm subsystem).
The upstream patch can not be cherry-picked against this 5.14 tree:
its target lines were introduced by upstream commit d0d5c0cd1e71
("rxrpc: Use skb_unshare() rather than skb_cow_data()") which is not
present here. The age-equivalent code path on AlmaLinux 9 is the
centralized skb_unshare() in net/rxrpc/io_thread.c that is run for
every DATA packet with a non-zero securityIndex before in-place
decryption.
skb_unshare() only handles cloned skbs. An skb that is non-cloned but
carries paged fragments (skb->data_len != 0) — e.g. pages attached via
udp_sendpage() / splice() / MSG_SPLICE_PAGES on a UDP socket carrying
rxrpc traffic — slips through and is decrypted in place over data the
skb does not own privately. With kernel-modules-partner installed
(rxrpc.ko enabled), this is exploitable.
Replace the unconditional skb_unshare() with skb_copy() whenever the
skb is cloned OR carries paged fragments. skb_copy() always returns a
freshly allocated linear skb, so subsequent in-place decryption only
touches kernel-owned memory. The original skb is consumed explicitly
(skb_unshare did this internally via consume_skb()).
Verified to apply with `patch -p1 -F0` (no offset, no fuzz, no
rejects) against kernel-5.14.0-611.54.1.el9_7.
