net: skbuff: drop the word head from skb cache
skbuff_head_cache is misnamed (perhaps for historical reasons?)
because it does not hold heads. Head is the buffer which skb->data
points to, and also where shinfo lives. struct sk_buff is a metadata
structure, not the head.
Eric recently added skb_small_head_cache (which allocates actual
head buffers), let that serve as an excuse to finally clean this up :)
Leave the user-space visible name intact, it could possibly be uAPI.
