This change allows an extended address struct - struct sockaddr_mctp_ext - to be passed to sendmsg/recvmsg. This allows userspace to specify output ifindex and physical address information (for sendmsg) or receive the input ifindex/physaddr for incoming messages (for recvmsg). This is typically used by userspace for MCTP address discovery and assignment operations. The extended addressing facility is conditional on a new sockopt: MCTP_OPT_ADDR_EXT; userspace must explicitly enable addressing before the kernel will consume/populate the extended address data. Includes a fix for an uninitialised var: Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>
