We are about to convert to using separate RPC listener sockets for PF_INET and PF_INET6. This echoes the way IPv6 is handled in user space by TI-RPC, and eliminates the need for ULPs to worry about mapped IPv4 AF_INET6 addresses when doing address comparisons. Start by setting the IPV6ONLY flag on PF_INET6 RPC listener sockets.
