This code used to copy in an unsigned long worth of data before
the sockptr_t conversion, so restore that.

No this isn't right.  In the original code, it copied an unsigned int.

	if (get_user(opt, (unsigned int __user *)optval))

The fix is to probably to change "opt" to an unsigned int.  I wonder if
I need to update all the integer overflow checks to from:

-	if (opt > ULONG_MAX / HZ)
+	if (opt > UINT_MAX / HZ)

...

Probably no one cares, right?  Ralf?
