Apparently a lot of people need to disable IPv6 completely on their
distributor-built systems, which have CONFIG_IPV6_MODULE enabled at
build time.
They do this by blacklisting the ipv6.ko module. This causes the
creation of the lockd service listener to fail if CONFIG_IPV6_MODULE
is set, but the module cannot be loaded.
Now that the kernel's PF_INET6 RPC listeners are completely separate
from PF_INET listeners, we can always start PF_INET. Then lockd can
try to start PF_INET6, but it isn't required to be available.
Note this has the added benefit that NLM callbacks from AF_INET6
servers will never come from AF_INET remotes. We no longer have to
worry about matching mapped IPv4 addresses to AF_INET when comparing
addresses.
