This series continues the migration to sockopt_t, as described in [1]. do_ip_getsockopt() and do_ipv6_getsockopt() are the last two switches still taking a sockptr_t pair, and everything they forward to now takes a sockopt_t, so convert them both. Patch 1 settles what a negative optlen means on SOL_IPV6 before the conversion makes it matter. do_ip_getsockopt() rejects it, but do_ipv6_getsockopt() never has, and the int options answer it as 4. Treat it as 4, as David Laight suggested, instead of failing callers that rely on it. Patch 2 fixes a latent bug in sockopt_expand_out() [2] itself: it caps the expansion at INT_MAX, but iov_iter_revert() refuses to unroll past the smaller MAX_RW_COUNT. MCAST_MSFILTER has to move before the switches above it. It is the last option with the quirk sockopt_expand_out() was added for [2]: optlen only covers the fixed part, and the real reply size comes from the gf_numsrc field inside it. Patches 3 and 4 convert it on both families, and store the reply length only after the final copy succeeds, so a copy failure can't report a changed optlen. Patches 5 and 6 convert the switches themselves. Each wrapper keeps its __user prototype and builds the sockopt_t, so the proto layer is untouched. ipv6_getsockopt() cannot use sockopt_init_user(), which rejects a negative optlen, so patch 6 moves the clamp of patch 1 up there and builds the sockopt_t after it. Patch 7 grows the selftest with an ip and an ipv6 fixture, pinning the returned length, errno and reply bytes. The temporary sockptr_t-to-sockopt_t glue can go away once the higher level callers take sockopt_t too. For now, the series keeps the proto callbacks unchanged and converts only the leaf helpers.
