net: sk_free_datagram() should use sk_mem_reclaim_partial()
I noticed a contention on udp_memory_allocated on regular UDP applications. While tcp_memory_allocated is seldom used, it appears each incoming UDP frame is currently touching udp_memory_allocated when queued, and when received by application. One possible solution is to use sk_mem_reclaim_partial() instead of sk_mem_reclaim(), so that we keep a small reserve (less than one page) of memory for each UDP socket. We did something very similar on TCP side in commit 9993e7d313e80bdc005d09c7def91903e0068f07 ([TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer()) A more complex solution would need to convert prot->memory_allocated to use a percpu_counter with batches of 64 or 128 pages.
