Subject: [DCCP] [RFC] [Patch 1/1]: Deprecate dccp_so_feat interface

This patch regards the DCCP test tree and is with regard to removing
the old socket interface (DCCP_SOCKOPT_CHANGE_L/R) which used the
following struct:

	struct dccp_so_feat {
	      __u8            dccpsf_feat;
	      void __user     *dccpsf_val;
       	      _u8             dccpsf_len;
	};

Originally there was code to keep supporting this interface, but
this was extremely ugly and unsafe (can be seen in the patch), since

  * `dccpsf_val' can be either server-priority list or single value;
  * if it is a single value, it requires typecasting as u64 (which
    is the base format for NN values, to accommodate Sequence Window);
  * it is very low-level - the test tree now handles the full 
    negotiation handshake by itself; it is not necessary to set a
    socket option to send ChangeL/R options.

Some of the ugliness can be seen in the patch. The proposed replacement is:

  * a separate socket option for all features of interest;
  * two internal routines local to feat.c:
    	__feat_register_sp() -- for Server-Priority features;
    	__feat_register_nn() -- for Non-Negotiable features.
  * wrappers around the internal functions to work with the sockopt code:
    	dccp_feat_register_sp()
	dccp_feat_register_nn()

This patch keeps the old socket options and issues a warning - maybe it
should also return a negative error code (EOPNOTSUPP)?

To me this design seems cleaner & safer - comments welcome.
