net: get rid of some pointless casts to sockaddr
The following 4 functions:
move_addr_to_kernel
move_addr_to_user
verify_iovec
verify_compat_iovec
are always effectively called with a sockaddr_storage.
Make this explicit by changing their signature.
This removes a large number of casts from sockaddr_storage to sockaddr.
