compat bug in sys_recvmsg, MSG_CMSG_COMPAT check missing

PATCH 1/1 compat bug in sys_recvmsg, MSG_CMSG_COMPAT check missing
packet_recvmsg() gets the flags from the compat_sys_socketcall(), but it does not check for the active MSG_CMSG_COMPAT bit. As a result, it returns -EINVAL and makes the user rather unhappy

Not just packet_recvmsg() (frankly, I'm stumped how tcpdump is working on my sparc64 boxes due to this bug!), every other sendmsg/recvmsg implementation has a test like this verifying the msg_flags for bogons.
Let's ask a better question, why do we need to pass this thing down into the implementations anyways?
I can't see a reason, can anyone else? If there is no reason, the right fix is simply to mask it out at the top level, for both sendmsg and recvmsg.
[ Replying to myself :-) ]

It's for net/core/scm.c handling, sigh.
This means also that Olaf's patch is broken, when CONFIG_COMPAT is not set, MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is zero, thus ~MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is the unexpected value all 1's thus breaking the tests for unexpected flags completely.
Any better ideas?

If MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is "ZERO", which it will be if CONFIG_COMPAT is not set, then "~0" is all bits, therefore if any bit (even the ones we want to accept) is set we will return failure. The test ends up amounting to:
if (flags & ~0)
which is true if any bit is set, that's not what we want.
Anyways, I'm going to fix the bug like so:
