@subbuf is an output parameter of xdr_buf_subsegment(). A survey of
call sites shows that @subbuf is always uninitialized before
xdr_buf_segment() is invoked by callers.

There are some execution paths through xdr_buf_subsegment() that do
not set all of the fields in @subbuf, leaving some pointer fields
containing garbage addresses. Subsequent processing of that buffer
then results in a page fault.

As a further optimisation of the diffserv parsing codepath, we can skip it
entirely if CAKE is configured to neither use diffserv-based

entirely if CAKE is configured to neither use diffserv-based
classification, nor to zero out the diffserv bits.

cake_handle_diffserv() tries to linearize mac and network header parts of
skb and to make it writable unconditionally. In some cases it leads to full
skb reallocation, which reduces throughput and increases CPU load. Some
measurements of IPv4 forward + NAPT on MIPS router with 580 MHz single-core
CPU was conducted. It appears that on kernel 4.9 skb_try_make_writable()
reallocates skb, if skb was allocated in ethernet driver via so-called
'build skb' method from page cache (it was discovered by strange increase
of kmalloc-2048 slab at first).

Obtain DSCP value via read-only skb_header_pointer() call, and leave
linearization only for DSCP bleaching or ECN CE setting. And, as an
additional optimisation, skip diffserv parsing entirely if it is not needed
by the current configuration.
