kernel: use skb_cow_head() to deal with cloned skbs

Browse source 
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.

Subject: [PATCH] smsc95xx: Use skb_cow_head to deal with cloned skbs
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
with skb_cow_head.
