Hi Eric,
I understand your concern, but I would like to postpone implementing this
feature until the ulp infrastructure stabilizes.
I don't even know how many users want to use IPV6_ADDRFORM on sockets with ulp.
I think that simply returning an error for ulp sockets in the meantime is a 
reasonable 
compromise.

what do you think about the patch below?

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ipv6: Disable IPV6_ADDRFORM on sockets with ulp attached

The IPV6_ADDRFORM setsockopt works by overriding sk->sk_prot.
The current KTLS ulp also overrides sk->sk_prot.
Consequently, using IPV6_ADDRFORM when there is a ulp attached is
unsafe and this patch disables it.

Fixes: 3c4d7559159b ('tls: kernel TLS support')
