Hello,

this patchset is first of three parts of another big patchset for
MSG_ZEROCOPY flag support:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230701063947.3422088-1-AVKrasnov@sberdevices.ru/

During review of this series, Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare@redhat.com>
suggested to split it for three parts to simplify review and merging:

1) virtio and vhost updates (for fragged skbs) <--- this patchset
2) AF_VSOCK updates (allows to enable MSG_ZEROCOPY mode and read
   tx completions) and update for Documentation/.
3) Updates for tests and utils.

This series enables handling of fragged skbs in virtio and vhost parts.
Newly logic won't be triggered, because SO_ZEROCOPY options is still
impossible to enable at this moment (next bunch of patches from big
set above will enable it).

I've included changelog to some patches anyway, because there were some
comments during review of last big patchset from the link above.

Head for this patchset is:

## Form letter - net-next-closed

The merge window for v6.6 has begun and therefore net-next is closed
for new drivers, features, code refactoring and optimizations.
We are currently accepting bug fixes only.

Please repost when net-next reopens after Sept 11th.

RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time.
