<content type='text'>
In preparation for passing in more information via this API, change
do_accept() to take a proto_accept_arg struct pointer rather than just
the file flags separately.

No functional changes in this patch.

Rather than pass in flags, error pointer, and whether this is a kernel
invocation or not, add a struct proto_accept_arg struct as the argument.
This then holds all of these arguments, and prepares accept for being
able to pass back more information.

No functional changes in this patch.

We're exporting some io_uring bits to networking, e.g. for implementing
a net callback for io_uring cmds, but we don't want to expose more than
needed. Add a separate header for networking.

The only user of these was io_uring, and it's not using them anymore.
Make them static and remove them from the socket header file.

The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag used to be implemented in SLAB, which was
removed as of v6.8-rc1, so it became a dead flag since the commit
16a1d968358a ("mm/slab: remove mm/slab.c and slab_def.h"). And the
series[1] went on to mark it obsolete to avoid confusion for users.
Here we can just remove all its users, which has no functional change.

<title>net: Save and restore msg_namelen in sock_sendmsg</title>

Commit 86a7e0b69bd5 ("net: prevent rewrite of msg_name in
sock_sendmsg()") made sock_sendmsg save the incoming msg_name pointer
and restore it before returning, to insulate the caller against
msg_name being changed by the called code.  If the address length
was also changed however, we may return with an inconsistent structure
where the length doesn't match the address, and attempts to reuse it may
lead to lost packets.

For example, a kernel that doesn't have commit 1c5950fc6fe9 ("udp6: fix
potential access to stale information") will replace a v4 mapped address
with its ipv4 equivalent, and shorten namelen accordingly from 28 to 16.
If the caller attempts to reuse the resulting msg structure, it will have
the original ipv6 (v4 mapped) address but an incorrect v4 length.

<title>bpf: Add __bpf_hook_{start,end} macros</title>

Not all uses of __diag_ignore_all(...) in BPF-related code in order to
suppress warnings are wrapping kfunc definitions. Some "hook point"
definitions - small functions meant to be used as attach points for
fentry and similar BPF progs - need to suppress -Wmissing-declarations.

We could use __bpf_kfunc_{start,end}_defs added in the previous patch in
such cases, but this might be confusing to someone unfamiliar with BPF
internals. Instead, this patch adds __bpf_hook_{start,end} macros,
currently having the same effect as __bpf_kfunc_{start,end}_defs, then
uses them to suppress warnings for two hook points in the kernel itself
and some bpf_testmod hook points as well.
