Earlier this function was duplicated at 2 places i.e. in
#ifdef CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S and #else block. This patch takes those
duplicate definitions out and move it to a common place.

BTW, there is nothing sndmsg specific in this, so this could be open
coded as well. But as far as this patch is concerned, it looks good.

So please feel free to add:
