This looks like an hack to avoid a build dependency on IPV6, I think the
explicit

I happily copied this approach from espintcp.c:espintcp_init_sk() :-D


#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6)

at init time should be preferable

To get this done at init time I need inet6_stream_ops to be accessible, but it seems there is no EXPORT_SYMBOL() for this object.

However, I see that mptcp/protocol.c is happily accessing it.
Any clue how this is possible?

If I try to access it within ovpn I get the usual error:
ERROR: modpost: "inet6_stream_ops" [drivers/net/ovpn/ovpn.ko] undefined!

but mptcp compiles just fine.

Any hint?
