The changes looks good, but the commit log including subject line
is rather confusing. What you do is to replace all uses of
__sock_create with sock_create_kern, which works because
sock_create_kern just calls __sock_create with the last argument set
to 1 as those callers do it. This then allows marking __sock_create
static because all outside users are gone.
Please state that, i.e.
Subect: use sock_create_kern insteadf of opencoding it
Replace all callers of __sock_create that set the kernel argument to 1
with sock_create_kern, which is the improve interface for that.
Mark __sock_create static now that all users outside of socket.c
are gone.
