I remember not finding it in the similar code path, but maybe I missed
something. It's used by inet6_sk_port_offset() which also returns a u32,
itself used by inet6_hash_connect() and passed to __inet_hash_connect().

Hmmm the loop is now closed, I don't know how I missed it. So yes I
agree that it would definitely be needed. I'll update the patch, many
thanks!
