    Description

      Andreas noticed this comment in patches landing to upstream 4.12:

         commit cdfbabfb2f0ce983fdaa42f20e5f7842178fc01e
   Subject: net: Work around lockdep limitation in sockets that use sockets

   I noticed that lustre and ocfs don't create sockets
   through sock_create_kern() and thus they aren't marked as for-kernel,
   though they appear to be internal.  I wonder if these should do that so
   that they use the new set of lock keys.

      This ticket is for just updating the socklnd calls from sock_create() to sock_create_kern().
