Remove is_ipv6 from napi_gro_cb and use sk->sk_family instead.
This frees up space for another ip_fixedid bit that will be added
in the next commit.

udp_sock_create always creates either a AP_INET or a AF_INET6 socket,
so using sk->sk_family is reliable.

Since this pattern repeats, you could create a static inline helper that returns the adequate offloads reference depending upon being passed a socket reference?
