It is wasteful to have two empty lines before this structure definition, one
is sufficient.

Comments should be of the form:

	/* Like

	 */

Rather than:

	/*
	 * Like
	 * this.
	 */

Why does an ignored, reserved, field need an endianness?  Just use
plain "u16" for this.

Don't split the declaration after "static" with a newline, instead use:

====================
static void hvsock_enqueue_accept(struct sock *listener,
				  struct sock *connected)
====================

Please order local variables from logest to shortest line.
