Hi Greg,

I sent the below email to Sasha and stable@ this morning, but I forgot
to CC you and can't find a copy of it on lore. So here goes a copy:

This commit is part of the following series
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230720-so-reuseport-v6-0-7021b683cdae@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/
As far as I can tell this was pulled in due to the Fixes tag on patch
7. I think that tag was misguided, in that the original code
explicitly rejected SO_REUSEPORT sockets so there isn't a bug to fix
here. The SO_REUSEPORT code is quite fiddly, so I'm uneasy about
backporting the change. Could you drop patches 3-8 from 5.15, 6.1, 6.4
and 6.5 please? Patch 1-2 are good to backport.

This also means that "net: remove duplicate INDIRECT_CALLABLE_DECLARE
of udp[6]_ehashfn" is not required anymore.

Sorry for the mess,
Lorenz
