tcp: really ignore MSG_ZEROCOPY if no SO_ZEROCOPY

Browse source 
According to the documentation in msg_zerocopy.rst, the SO_ZEROCOPY
flag was introduced because send(2) ignores unknown message flags and
any legacy application which was accidentally passing the equivalent of
MSG_ZEROCOPY earlier should not see any new behaviour.

Before commit f214f915e7 ("tcp: enable MSG_ZEROCOPY"), a send(2) call
which passed the equivalent of MSG_ZEROCOPY without setting SO_ZEROCOPY
would succeed.  However, after that commit, it fails with -ENOBUFS.  So
it appears that the SO_ZEROCOPY flag fails to fulfill its intended
purpose.  Fix it.
