Subject: [PATCH v11 02/12] net/compat.c,linux/filter.h: share compat_sock_fprog

Any other users of bpf_*_filter that take a struct sock_fprog from
userspace will need to be able to also accept a compat_sock_fprog
if the arch supports compat calls.  This change let's the existing
compat_sock_fprog be shared.

Signed-off-by: Will Drewry <wad@...omium.org>
