Subject: [PATCH] Qperf support for ipv4 when ipv6 is disabled at protocol layer

From: sababu <sababu@...hat.com>

    With qperf version 0.4.9 we defined AI_FAMILY as AF_UNSPEC, starting
    qperf 0.4.11 the same is changed to AF_INET6 which causes issues
    when ipv6 is disabled at protocol layer (as a kernel command line
    arguement). This patch reverses the behavior.
