We initialise the events_a and events_b variables
with
tcp_splice_conn_epoll_events() function, then immediately copy the values
into ev_a.events and ev_b.events. We can't simply pass &ev_[ab].events to
tcp_splice_conn_epoll_events(), because struct epoll_event is packed,
leading to 'pointer may be unaligned' warnings if we attempt that.
We can, however, make tcp_splice_conn_epoll_events() take struct
epoll_event pointers rather than raw u32 pointers, avoiding the awkward
temporaries.

This should be b->events |= ..., but it's fixed in 7/11 anyway.
