Willem de Bruijn ced68234b6 sock: remove zerocopy sockopt restriction on closed tcp state
Socket option SO_ZEROCOPY determines whether the kernel ignores or
processes flag MSG_ZEROCOPY on subsequent send calls. This to avoid
changing behavior for legacy processes.

Limiting the state change to closed sockets is annoying with passive
sockets and not necessary for correctness. Once created, zerocopy skbs
are processed based on their private state, not this socket flag.

Remove the constraint.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
