Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v1 2/7] inet: add inet_splice_read() and use it in inet_stream_ops/inet6_stream_ops

From: Jiayuan Chen <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2026 14:33:53 +0800

Add inet_splice_read() which dispatches to sk->sk_prot->splice_read
via INDIRECT_CALL_1. Replace the direct tcp_splice_read reference in
inet_stream_ops and inet6_stream_ops with inet_splice_read.
