While the first is dirtied by udp_recvmsg, the latter is read, possibly several times, by the bottom half processing to discriminate between udp and udplite sockets. With this patch, sk->sk_protocol is used to check is the socket is really an udplite one, avoiding some cache misses per packet and improving the performance under udp_flood with small packet up to 10%.
