Using the syzkaller repro with reduced packet size it was discovered
that XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM is not checked in tun_can_build_skb(),
although pad may be incremented in tun_build_skb(). This may end up
with exceeding the PAGE_SIZE limit in tun_build_skb().

Fixes: 7df13219d757 ("tun: reserve extra headroom only when XDP is set")

Notes:
     v3 -> v4:
     * fall back to v1, fixing only missing XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM in pad and
       removing bpf_xdp_adjust_tail() check for frame_sz.
     * added rcu read lock, noted by Jason Wang [off-list ref] in v1
     * I decided to leave the packet length check in tun_can_build_skb()
       instead of moving to tun_build_skb() suggested by Jason Wang
       [off-list ref]. Otherwise extra packets will be dropped
       without falling back to tun_alloc_skb(). And in the discussion of v3
       Jesper Dangaard Brouer [off-list ref] noticed that XDP is ok
       with a higher order pages if it's a contiguous physical memory
       allocation, so falling to tun_alloc_skb() -> do_xdp_generic() should
       be ok.

     v2 -> v3:
     * attach the forgotten changelog

     v1 -> v2:
     * merged 2 patches in 1, fixing both issues: WARN_ON_ONCE with
       syzkaller repro and missing XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM in pad
     * changed the title and description of the execution path, suggested
       by Jason Wang [off-list ref]
     * move the limit check from tun_can_build_skb() to tun_build_skb() to
       remove duplication and locking issue, and also drop the packet in
       case of a failed check - noted by Jason Wang [off-list ref]

Isolated seen, I guess, this is a correct fix to 7df13219d757.
I think so.

Actually, I think we can probably always count XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM
here. Since there's a window that XDP program might be attached in the
middle of tun_can_build_skb() and tun_build_skb().

Question to Jason Wang:
Why fall back (to e.g. tun_alloc_skb()) when size is above PAGE_SIZE?

AFAIK tun_build_skb() *can* create get larger packets than PAGE_SIZE
from it's page_frag.  Is there a reason for this limitation?
I couldn't recall but I think we can relax.

Thanks
(To Andrew, I assume a change in this area is another patch).
