PATCH 1/1 Remove unneeded packet_socks_nr variable

This one is used only under ifdef PACKET_REFCNT_DEBUG in printk and is not needed otherwise. So hide all this stuff under the PACKET_REFCNT_DEBUG.

Look at sk_refcnt_debug_inc, etc and you'll se a more standard way. I forgot to make this when making all protocol families use sk_prot, even if just partially :-)

As a bonus you'll get this information on /proc/net/protocols, removing '-1' from PACKET column for "sockets".

Hm... I actually thought about this, but I decided that packet sockets were not accounted in this way deliberately.

So, shall I break this "compatibility" (-1 in proc) and provide a packet socket number in this file?

Humm, my bad, the sockets column in /proc/net/protocols doesn't come from prot->socks, it comes from prot->sockets_allocated. But the suggestion for using sk_refcnt_debug_inc stands, it is there for when we want to do what the code in pf_packet does: refcount debugging, in fact that code most probably was copy'n'pasted from other, older protocols.

BTW, IPX also uses this technique, patches are welcome to make it also use common infrastructure :-)
