Well, 0-day may find more, but I can already tell you that patch 1 has
a checkpatch error:

ERROR: "(foo*)" should be "(foo *)"
#149: FILE: net/core/scm.c:323:
+		(__force struct cmsghdr __user*)msg->msg_control;

total: 1 errors, 0 warnings, 0 checks, 131 lines checked

And patch 2 makes W=1 builds unhappy:

net/core/scm.c:292: warning: Function parameter or member 'file' not described in '__scm_install_fd'
net/core/scm.c:292: warning: Function parameter or member 'ufd' not described in '__scm_install_fd'
net/core/scm.c:292: warning: Function parameter or member 'o_flags' not described in '__scm_install_fd'
