This adds small optimization for tx path: instead of allocating single
skbuff on every call to transport, allocate multiple skbuff's until
credit space allows, thus trying to send as much as possible data without
return to af_vsock.c.

Changelog:
v1 -> v2:
- If sent something, return number of bytes sent (even in
case of error). Return error only if failed to sent first
skbuff.
v2 -> v3:
- Handle case when transport callback returns unexpected value which
is not equal to 'skb->len'. Break loop.
- Don't check for zero value of 'rest_len' before calling
'virtio_transport_put_credit()'. Decided to add this check directly
to 'virtio_transport_put_credit()' in separate patch.

... here.
Since we don't expect this condition for now, perhaps we can avoid
setting ret with -EFAULT, but we can add a WARN_ONCE (interrupting the
loop as you did here).
This way we return the partial length as we did before.
Thanks,
Stefano
