MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is (AFAIK) not intended to be part of the API --
it's a hack that steals a bit to indicate to other networking code
that a compat entry was used.  So don't allow it from a non-compat
syscall.

This is causing a regression on 64bit powerpc with 32bit usermode.
When I hit userspace, udev is broken and I suspect all networking is
broken as well.

Can we please revert 1be374a0518a288147c6a7398792583200a67261 upstream?

It seems to also break x86_64, if using 32bit usermode.
