For tcp_sock_init_ns(), "inbound" connections used to be the ones being established toward any listening socket we create, as opposed to sockets we connect(). Similarly, tcp_splice_new() used to handle "inbound" connections in the sense that they originated from listening sockets, and they would in turn cause a connect() on an "outbound" socket. Since commit 1128fa03fe73 ("Improve types and names for port forwarding configuration"), though, inbound connections are more broadly defined as the ones directed to guest or namepsace, and outbound the ones originating from there. Update comments for those two functions.
