Thanks for the kindness code review, I still get some issue here(Sorry for the first time to contribute):

1. > We keep copying IPv4 addresses that might contain garbage for IPv6 sockets :/

I'm not getting your means, would you mean that we should only save the IPv4 Address here?

2. > I will send a cleanup, because IP_STORE_ADDRS() should really take care of all details.

I think you will make the address assignment code in TP_fast_assign as a new function.

Should I submit the new change until you send the cleanup patch or I can make this in my patch(cleanup the address assignment)
