Changes look fine to me, but a few comments:

- I'd order 1/3 as 3/3, that ordering makes more sense as at that point it
  could actually be used.

- For adding it to af_inet/af_inet6, you should write a better commit message
  on the reasoning for the change. Right now it just describes what the
  patch does (which is obvious from the change), not WHY it's done. Really
  goes for current 1/3 as well, commit messages need to be better in
  general.

I'd also CC Jann Horn on the series, he's the one that found an issue there
in the past and also acked the previous change on doing PROTO_CMSG_DATA_ONLY.
