Kuniyuki Iwashima d9f21b3613 af_unix: Try to run GC async.

If more than 16000 inflight AF_UNIX sockets exist and the garbage
collector is not running, unix_(dgram|stream)_sendmsg() call unix_gc().
Also, they wait for unix_gc() to complete.

In unix_gc(), all inflight AF_UNIX sockets are traversed at least once,
and more if they are the GC candidate.  Thus, sendmsg() significantly
slows down with too many inflight AF_UNIX sockets.

However, if a process sends data with no AF_UNIX FD, the sendmsg() call
does not need to wait for GC.  After this change, only the process that
meets the condition below will be blocked under such a situation.

  1) cmsg contains AF_UNIX socket
  2) more than 32 AF_UNIX sent by the same user are still inflight

Note that even a sendmsg() call that does not meet the condition but has
AF_UNIX FD will be blocked later in unix_scm_to_skb() by the spinlock,
but we allow that as a bonus for sane users.

The results below are the time spent in unix_dgram_sendmsg() sending 1
byte of data with no FD 4096 times on a host where 32K inflight AF_UNIX
sockets exist.

Without series: the sane sendmsg() needs to wait gc unreasonably.

With series: the sane sendmsg() can finish much faster.
