net: core stable backport for rhel 9.0

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2028276 Tested: LNST, Tier1

This includes a few critical bugfixes for the core network stack.

Notably it includes 7f678def99d2 ("skb_expand_head() adjust skb->truesize incorrectly") and a whole series of pre-requisites. The bug addressed there is nasty and present even prior to skb_expand_head() introduction.

commit 719c57197010 ("net: make napi_disable() symmetric with enable") instead has been explicitly excluded, as it's not really a fix, is known to introduce problems and it's still quite new
