A more conservative variant of the patch series on another day of the
year, sure. It also probably wants to land after 
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/
turns CONFIG_IPV6 into a boolean.

I'll need to take a closer look at CONFIG_INET too; it ends up being
possible to configure with INET && !LEGACY_IP && !IPV6 which isn't a
combination that makes sense (and I obviously didn't test). 

As discussed, some of this series *is* realistic for another day, and
I'll happily work on whatever direction we think makes sense.
