[PATCH net-next v2 1/5] netpoll: Remove unused fields from inet_addr union

From: Breno Leitao
Date: Mon Jul 21 2025 - 09:02:56 EST


Clean up the inet_addr union by removing unused fields that are
redundant with existing members:

This simplifies the union structure while maintaining all necessary
functionality for both IPv4 and IPv6 address handling.
