[RFC PATCH] net: core: Replace kmap() with kmap_local_page()

["Fabio M. De Francesco" <fmdefrancesco@gmail.com>]

The use of kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().

With kmap_local_page(), the mappings are per thread, CPU local and not
globally visible. Taking page faults is allowed. Furthermore, the mappings
can be acquired from any context (including interrupts).

Therefore, use kmap_local_page() in sock.c and datagram.c because these
mappings are per thread, CPU local, and not globally visible.

Actually this is an RFC because I'm not 100% sure that the mappings in
sock.c are not handed over to other contexts. Unfortunately I know very
little about this code. The fact that "page" is kmapped and then kunmapped
before exiting sock_send_page*() is not a guarantee of thread locality.
That "kernel_sendmsg*()" is a bit "suspicious".

Can anyone please confirm whether or not "kaddr" is handed over to other
contexts while the call sites might sleep between kmap() / kunmap()?
