Seems fine. We could go a step further and use IS_ENABLED()
as C code here to get rid of the two #ifdef checks as well, like

        if (ip_hdr(skb)->version == 4 ) {
                addr4.sin_family = AF_INET;
                addr4.sin_addr.s_addr = ip_hdr(skb)->saddr;
                rc = netlbl_conn_setattr(ep->base.sk, &addr4, &secattr);
        } else if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6) && ip_hdr(skb)->version == 6) {
                addr6.sin6_family = AF_INET6;
                addr6.sin6_addr = ipv6_hdr(skb)->saddr;
                rc = netlbl_conn_setattr(ep->base.sk, &addr6, &secattr);
        } else {
               rc = -EAFNOSUPPORT;
        }
