[PATCH net 0/2] packet: fix PACKET_TX_RING data corruption on skb_orphan

From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com>

When transmitting packets via PACKET_TX_RING, tpacket_snd links user
ring buffer pages as skb frags and releases the slot on skb->destructor
(tpacket_destruct_skb).

skb_orphan() invokes the destructor while the skb is still alive.
This marks the slot as TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE prematurely, allowing
userspace to overwrite the slot and causing data corruption.

This series fixes the issue by switching PACKET_TX_RING to standard
ubuf_info zerocopy completion, ensuring ring slots are released only
after all payload references are freed or copied.

Virtio-net needs a separate solution, because deferring the release
can cause deadlock in its !use_napi mode.

- Patch 1 addresses the virtio-net special case.
- Patch 2 converts tpacket_snd to standard ubuf_info completion

Patch 1 must be applied, and backported, before patch 2. Both carry
the same Fixes tag for that reason.

Willem de Bruijn (2):
  virtio_net: copy zerocopy frags in start_xmit without NAPI
  packet: use ubuf_info completion for TX_RING packets
