[ Upstream commit b9edbfe1adecfc48fd11061dce68afb03d6adbdc ]

Commit 3df98d79215ace13 ("lsm,selinux: pass flowi_common instead of flowi
to the LSM hooks") introduced flowi{4,6}_to_flowi_common() functions which
cause UBSAN warning when building with LLVM 11.0.1 on Ubuntu 21.04.

I don't think we need to call flowi{4,6}_to_flowi() from these functions
because the first member of "struct flowi4" and "struct flowi6" is

struct flowi_common __fl_common;

while the first member of "struct flowi" is

union {
struct flowi_common __fl_common;
struct flowi4 ip4;
struct flowi6 ip6;
struct flowidn dn;
} u;

which should point to the same address without access to "struct flowi".
