BTW: As far as I understand, it is not a problem right now, because
get_next_ino returns int. And I'm agree that it maybe a problem in a
future and it is better to be ready.

There is one more place where we return ino as u32:

static int sk_diag_dump_peer(struct sock *sk, struct sk_buff *nlskb)
....
                return nla_put_u32(nlskb, UNIX_DIAG_PEER, ino);

How can a user understand whether this field is used or not?

Each netlink attribute has its size in a header. Any attribute can be
extended, and users can understand which fields are filled by
a size of an attribute.
