It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *
and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only
where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three
users overall.

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy()
some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for
this.

An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many
of the places using it:

<title>vsock: use new wait API for vsock_stream_sendmsg()</title>

As reported by Michal, vsock_stream_sendmsg() could still
sleep at vsock_stream_has_space() after prepare_to_wait():

  vsock_stream_has_space
    vmci_transport_stream_has_space
      vmci_qpair_produce_free_space
        qp_lock
          qp_acquire_queue_mutex
            mutex_lock

Just switch to the new wait API like we did for commit
d9dc8b0f8b4e ("net: fix sleeping for sk_wait_event()").

The virtio drivers deal with struct virtio_vsock_pkt.  Add
virtio_transport_deliver_tap_pkt(pkt) for handing packets to the
vsockmon device.

We call virtio_transport_deliver_tap_pkt(pkt) from
net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport.c and drivers/vhost/vsock.c instead of
common code.  This is because the drivers may drop packets before
handing them to common code - we still want to capture them.

Otherwise we'll leave the packets queued until releasing vsock device.
E.g., if guest is slow to start up, resulting ETIMEDOUT on connect, guest
will get the connect requests from failed host sockets.
