In pfkey_sendmsg the net mutex is taken and then pfkey_broadcast takes
the RCU lock.

Since pfkey_broadcast takes the RCU lock the allocation argument is
pointless since GFP_ATOMIC must be used between the rcu_read_{,un}lock.
The one call outside of rcu can be done with GFP_KERNEL.

In many places, the a6 field is typecasted to struct in6_addr. As the
fields are in union anyway, just add in6_addr type to the union and
get rid of the typecasting.

Modifying the uapi header is okay, the union has still the same size.

<content type='text'>
After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal
implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto
structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now.
Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of
implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire
networking stack.

<title>net: Add and use skb_copy_datagram_msg() helper.</title>

This encapsulates all of the skb_copy_datagram_iovec() callers
with call argument signature "skb, offset, msghdr-&gt;msg_iov, length".

When we move to iov_iters in the networking, the iov_iter object will
sit in the msghdr.

Having a helper like this means there will be less places to touch
during that transformation.

Based upon descriptions and patch from Al Viro.

This patch replaces a comma between expression statements by a semicolon.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that performs this
transformation is as follows:

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@r@
expression e1,e2,e;
type T;
identifier i;
@@

 e1
-,
+;
 e2;
// &lt;/smpl&gt;
