This lacks proper comment, stating that every field added after .temp
in struct bpf_sock_ops_kern is considered as scratch and could contain
garbage.
I assumed that one would modify this initialization appropriately when adding
a new field. But it would certainly make sense to indicate that new,
non-scratch,
fields should be added before temp so there would be no need to modify this
initialization code. Makes sense?
