net: Finish up ->msg_control{,_user} split
Commit 1f466e1 ("net: cleanly handle kernel vs user buffers for
->msg_control") introduced the msg_control_user and
msg_control_is_user fields in struct msghdr, to ensure that user
pointers are represented as such. It also took care of converting most
users of struct msghdr::msg_control where user pointers are involved. It
did however miss a number of cases, and some code using msg_control
inappropriately has also appeared in the meantime.
This series is attempting to complete the split, by eliminating the
remaining cases where msg_control is used when in fact a user
pointer is stored in the union (patch 1).
It also addresses a couple of issues with msg_control_is_user: one where
it is not updated as it should (patch 2), and one where it is not
initialised (patch 3).
v1..v2:
* Split out the msg_control_is_user fixes into separate patches.
