Sorry, if sa_family is not AF_NET, it is AF_INET6?

There is a lot of macros in include/linux/socket.h.

There are only two enumerations AF_INET and AF_INET6 have been assigned in geneve_newlink:

There's actually a third possibility: AF_UNSPEC, which is the default
if neither remote type is specified. This is used by lightweight
tunnels and should be able to work with either IPv4/v6. For the
purposes of the MTU calculation this means that the IPv4 header size
should be used to avoid disallowing potentially valid configurations.
