David Howells says:

====================
rxrpc: Support IPv6

Here is a set of patches that add IPv6 support.  They need to be applied on
top of the just-posted miscellaneous fix patches.  They are:

 (1) Make autobinding of an unconnected socket work when sendmsg() is
     called to initiate a client call.

 (2) Don't specify the protocol when creating the client socket, but rather
     take the default instead.

 (3) Use rxrpc_extract_addr_from_skb() in a couple of places that were
     doing the same thing manually.  This allows the IPv6 address
     extraction to be done in fewer places.

 (4) Add IPv6 support.  With this, calls can be made to IPv6 servers from
     userspace AF_RXRPC programs; AFS, however, can't use IPv6 yet as the
     RPC calls need to be upgradeable.
