Florian Westphal 35ebfc22fe afs: do not send list of client addresses
David Howells says:
  I'm told that there's not really any point populating the list.
  Current OpenAFS ignores it, as does AuriStor - and IBM AFS 3.6 will
  do the right thing.
  The list is actually useless as it's the client's view of the world,
  not the servers, so if there's any NAT in the way its contents are
  invalid.  Further, it doesn't support IPv6 addresses.

  On that basis, feel free to make it an empty list and remove all the
  interface enumeration.

V1 of this patch reworked the function to use a new helper for the
ifa_list iteration to avoid sparse warnings once the proper __rcu
annotations get added in struct in_device later.

But, in light of the above, just remove afs_get_ipv4_interfaces.

Compile tested only.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
