The UDP exports are only used by UDPv6 and UDP lite. They are internal functions
not supposed to be used by anybody else. So turn them into a name space that
only allows those.

There has been a pattern of bugs in the 2.6.24 conversion
where a driver is broken if NAPI is not configured.
Change all drivers that have conditional NAPI option to
have the datastructure missing so these bugs are caught at compile
time.
