kernel: use skb_cow_head() to deal with cloned skbs

We need to ensure there is enough headroom to push extra header,
but we also need to check if we are allowed to change headers.

skb_cow_head() is the proper helper to deal with this.

Fixes Ethernet<->WiFi bridge for Raspberry Pi and probably other devices.

+The driver was failing to check that the SKB wasn't cloned
+before adding checksum data.
+Replace existing handling to extend/copy the header buffer

+Subject: [PATCH] ch9200: use skb_cow_head() to deal with cloned skbs
+
+We need to ensure there is enough headroom to push extra header,
+but we also need to check if we are allowed to change headers.
+
+skb_cow_head() is the proper helper to deal with this.

+Subject: [PATCH] kaweth: use skb_cow_head() to deal with cloned skbs
+
+We can use skb_cow_head() to properly deal with clones,
+especially the ones coming from TCP stack that allow their head being
+modified. This avoids a copy.
