  [DECNET] Don't use sk_protinfo + private sock slab cache
  
  DecNET already uses a private sock slab cache, but initializes sk->sk_protinfo,
  pointing to (sk + 1), this is wrong because at sk_free time we call
  sk->sk_destruct, that by default points to sock_def_destruct, that does a kfree
  on sk->sk_protinfo, since it was initialized at net_proto_family->create() time
  (dn_create), but in decnet sk_protinfo was not kmalloced, it was allocated
  piggybacked to struct sock.
  
  This doesn't causes problems because decnet sets sk->sk_destruct to a custom
  function that doesn't calls kfree(sk->sk_protinfo), but to reach a long time
  goal of killing sk_protinfo lets just make DN_SK return sk + 1.
  
  I left merging dn_scp with dn_sock for later, as the current state suits my
  needs to introduce connection_sock.
