Given that libkern has inet_ntop, with the same arguments of the
userspace version, we'd be much better off with the following
course of action:

1. replace calls to inet_ntoa_r() with inet_ntop()
  This needs to be done only in the kernel, because the libc version
  is never used at least in the source tree (maybe some port does).

2. nuke inet_ntoa_r() from libkern

I am Ok with that I think (without looking at source implications) but
I guess you'll post a patch.


3. nuke inet_ntoa_r() from libc

I am not sure we can easily do that (despite not being used in base).
I fear some broader research into ports is needed, or as a shortcut,
does linux have an inet_ntoa_r()?
