udp: Remove UDPLITE_SEND_CSCOV and UDPLITE_RECV_CSCOV.
UDP-Lite supports variable-length checksum and has two socket
options, UDPLITE_SEND_CSCOV and UDPLITE_RECV_CSCOV, to control
the checksum coverage.
Let's remove the support.
setsockopt(UDPLITE_SEND_CSCOV / UDPLITE_RECV_CSCOV) was only
available for UDP-Lite and returned -ENOPROTOOPT for UDP.
Now, the options are handled in ip_setsockopt() and
ipv6_setsockopt(), which still return the same error.
getsockopt(UDPLITE_SEND_CSCOV / UDPLITE_RECV_CSCOV) was available
for UDP and always returned 0, meaning full checksum, but now
-ENOPROTOOPT is returned.
Given that getsockopt() is meaningless for UDP and even the options
are not defined under include/uapi/, this should not be a problem.
$ man 7 udplite
...
BUGS
Where glibc support is missing, the following definitions
are needed:
#define IPPROTO_UDPLITE 136
#define UDPLITE_SEND_CSCOV 10
#define UDPLITE_RECV_CSCOV 11
