Subject: net: recvmmsg: Strip MSG_WAITFORONE when calling recvmsg

From: Anton Blanchard <[email protected]>

commit b9eb8b8752804cecbacdb4d24b52e823cf07f107 upstream.

recvmmsg fails on a raw socket with EINVAL. The reason for this is
packet_recvmsg checks the incoming flags:

        err = -EINVAL;
        if (flags & 
~(MSG_PEEK|MSG_DONTWAIT|MSG_TRUNC|MSG_CMSG_COMPAT|MSG_ERRQUEUE))
                goto out;

This patch strips out MSG_WAITFORONE when calling recvmmsg which
fixes the issue.
