Just to state the obvious, I carry my personal bias on this topic due
to my background ;)

My perspective is quite similar to Alexei's one: the solution is not
extremely elegant, but is very self-contained; it looks viable to me.

WRT the specific code, I think the additional checks on the 'protocol'
value after the 'update_socket_protocol()' call should be dropped: the
user space can already provide an arbitrary value there and the later
code deal with that.

Cheers,

Paolo
