Hi Sasha,
This commit is part of the following series
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
As far as I can tell this was pulled in due to the Fixes tag on patch
7. I think that tag was misguided, in that the original code explicitly rejected SO_REUSEPORT sockets so there isn't a bug to fix here. The SO_REUSEPORT code is quite fiddly, so I'm uneasy about backporting the change. Could you drop patches 3-8 from 5.15, 6.1, 6.4 and 6.5 please?
This also means that "net: remove duplicate INDIRECT_CALLABLE_DECLARE of udp[6]_ehashfn" is not required anymore.
Sorry for the mess,
Lorenz
