net: get rid of some pointless casts to sockaddr
The following 4 functions: move_addr_to_kernel move_addr_to_user verify_iovec verify_compat_iovec are always effectively called with a sockaddr_storage. Make this explicit by changing their signature. This removes a large number of casts from sockaddr_storage to sockaddr. Signed-off-by: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
