Stop maintaining the skb_send_q list for TRANS_HIPER sockets. Not only is it extra overhead, but keeping around a list of skb clones means that we later also have to match the ->sk_txnotify() calls against these clones and free them accordingly. The current matching logic (comparing the skbs' shinfo location) is frustratingly fragile, and breaks if the skb's head is mangled in any sort of way while passing from dev_queue_xmit() to the device's HW queue. Also adjust the interface for ->sk_txnotify(), to make clear that we don't actually care about any skb internals.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
