net: ping: dont call udp_ioctl()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
udp_ioctl() really handles UDP and UDPLite protocols.

1) It can increment UDP_MIB_INERRORS in case first_packet_length() finds
a frame with bad checksum.

2) It has a dependency on sizeof(struct udphdr), not applicable to
ICMP/PING

If ping sockets need to handle SIOCINQ/SIOCOUTQ ioctl, this should be
done differently.
