ocfs2 uses kzalloc() to allocate buffers for o2net_hand, o2net_keep_req and
o2net_keep_resp and then passes these to sendpage. This isn't really
allowed as the lifetime of slab objects is not controlled by page ref -
though in this case it will probably work. sendmsg() with MSG_SPLICE_PAGES
will, however, print a warning and give an error.
Fix it to use folio_alloc() instead to allocate a buffer for the handshake
message, keepalive request and reply messages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
