unix_mkname() tests socket address length and family and does some processing based on the address type. It is called in the early stage, and therefore some instructions are redundant and can end up in vain. The address length/family tests are done twice in unix_bind(). Also, the address type is rechecked later in unix_bind() and unix_find_other(), where we can do the same processing. Moreover, in the BSD address case, the hash is set to 0 but never used and confusing. This patch moves the address tests out of unix_mkname(), and the following patches move the other part into appropriate places and remove unix_mkname() finally.

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.
