I am not sure I want to patch lower_32_bits() and upper_32_bits() for

They dont work on pointers, but on "numbers", according to kerneldoc
Andrew wrote years ago. gcc agrees :

net/ipv4/inet_diag.c: In function ‘inet_csk_diag_fill’:
net/ipv4/inet_diag.c:119: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size
net/ipv4/inet_diag.c:120: error: invalid operands to binary >>
make[1]: *** [net/ipv4/inet_diag.o] Error 1
