With this patch we get two new slabcaches, for sctp socks, that previously were being allocated on the default, that was tcp[6]_sock, i.e. wasting 288 bytes per sock in the IPv4 case and 256 bytes for the IPv6 version, this is in preparation for DCCP (or any other new protocol :) ). With this in place another nice side effect that is easier to achieve is to get rid of struct sock sk->sk_slab, and instead use sk->sk_prot->slab, saving sizeof(void *) on every struct sock instance, but this unfortunatly has to wait for the conversion of all protocols that use per socket slabcaches to use sk->sk_prot, AF_UNIX is the only one AFAIK, so I'll try to convert it to use sk->sk_prot and then get rid of sk->sk_slab. As for the protocols that don't use per socket slabcaches its just a matter of defaulting to sk_cachep at sk_free time if sk->sk_prot is NULL.
