net/ipv6: propagate user pointer annotation

For IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS, do_ipv6_getsockopt() stores the user pointer
optval in the msg_control field of the msghdr.

Hence, sparse rightfully warns at ./net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c:1151:33:

  warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces)
      expected void *msg_control
      got char [noderef] __user *optval

Since commit 1f466e1f15cf ("net: cleanly handle kernel vs user buffers for
->msg_control"), user pointers shall be stored in the msg_control_user
field, and kernel pointers in the msg_control field. This allows to
propagate __user annotations nicely through this struct.

Store optval in msg_control_user to properly record and propagate the
memory space annotation of this pointer.

Note that msg_control_is_user is set to true, so the key invariant, i.e.,
use msg_control_user if and only if msg_control_is_user is true, holds.

The msghdr is further used in the six alternative put_cmsg() calls, with
msg_control_is_user being true, put_cmsg() picks msg_control_user
preserving the __user annotation and passes that properly to
copy_to_user().

No functional change. No change in object code.
