From: Menglong Dong <dong.menglong@zte.com.cn>
In the first patch, I use BIT() for MSG_* to make the code tidier.
Directly use BIT() for MSG_* will be a bit problematic, because 'msg_flags' is defined as 'int' somewhere, and MSG_CMSG_COMPAT will make it become negative, just like what Guenter Roeck reported here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210317013758.GA134033@roeck-us.net
So in the second patch, I change MSG_CMSG_COMPAT to BIT(21), as David Laight suggested. MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is an internal value, which is't used in userspace, so this change works.
