====================
inet: tcp listener refactoring, part 13
inet_hash functions are in a bad state : Too much IPv6/IPv4 copy/pasting.
Lets refactor a bit.
Idea is that we do not want to have an equivalent of inet_csk(sk)->icsk_af_ops
for request socks in order to be able to use the right variant.
In this patch series, I started to let IPv6/IPv4 converge to common helpers.
Idea is to use ipv6_addr_set_v4mapped() even for AF_INET sockets, so that
we can test
if (sk->sk_family == AF_INET6 &&
!ipv6_addr_v4mapped(&sk->sk_v6_daddr))
to tell if we deal with an IPv6 socket, or IPv4 one, at least in slow paths.
Ideally, we could save 8 bytes per struct sock_common, if we
alias skc_daddr & skc_rcv_saddr to skc_v6_daddr[3]/skc_v6_rcv_saddr[3].
