    net: skbuff: propagate shared-frag marker through pskb_copy()

    Backport of https://lore.kernel.org/all/agRfuVOeMI5pbHhY@v4bel/
    adapted to the 4.18 SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG / shinfo->tx_flags API.

    __pskb_copy_fclone() and skb_try_coalesce() shallow-copied frag
    descriptors without propagating SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG, so destinations
    referencing externally-owned pages reported skb_has_shared_frag()
    as false. Set the bit on the destination whenever frag descriptors
    were actually moved from the source.

    Reintroduce the tarfile_release indirection so pkgrelease can
    advance independently of the imported source tarball.
