[PATCH v2 4/4] net: apply __GFP_NO_AUTOINIT to AF_UNIX sk_buff allocations

Add sock_alloc_send_pskb_noinit(), which is similar to
sock_alloc_send_pskb(), but allocates with __GFP_NO_AUTOINIT.
This helps reduce the slowdown on hackbench in the init_on_alloc mode
from 6.84% to 3.45%.

Slowdown for the initialization features compared to init_on_free=0,
init_on_alloc=0:

hackbench, init_on_free=1:  +7.71% sys time (st.err 0.45%)
hackbench, init_on_alloc=1: +3.45% sys time (st.err 0.86%)

Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1:  +8.34% wall time (st.err 0.39%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1:  +24.13% sys time (st.err 0.47%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: -0.04% wall time (st.err 0.46%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: +0.50% sys time (st.err 0.45%)

The slowdown for init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0 compared to the
baseline is within the standard error.
