This is only for networking.

It affect BPF too, I suppose, but I always tell everyone to just send
BPF bug reports instead of patches.  I can keep track of linux-next, net
and net-next.  No one can keep track of all @#$@#$@#$@# 300+ trees.

I really hate this networking requirement but I try really hard to get
it right and still mess up half the time.
