This bit in the TCP specific epoll reference indicates whether the
connection is IPv6 or IPv4. However the sites which refer to it are
already calling accept() which (optionally) returns an address for the
remote end of the connection. We can use the sa_family field in that
address to determine the connection type independent of the epoll
reference.
This does have a cost: for the spliced case, it means we now need to get
that address from accept() which introduces an extran copy_to_user().
However, in future we want to allow handling IPv4 connectons through IPv6
sockets, which means we won't be able to determine the IP version at the
time we create the listening socket and epoll reference. So, at some point
we'll have to pay this cost anyway.
