I'm not sure this is a good idea, linux/in.h should not be included in
userspace users of this file, 'sockaddr_in' needs to come from glibc's
'netinet/in.h' instead..

Is it wrong to include include/uapi/linux/in.h from userspace?
Generally speaking userspace should always use the glibc version of
the headers and not headers from under linux/
Sorry?  Isn't the main idea of UAPI in providing the Linux interface for
userspace, unlike glibc headers that provide other more or less standard
interfaces like GNU, POSIX, etc?
