Rao Shoaib 314001f0bf af_unix: Add OOB support 
This patch adds OOB support for AF_UNIX sockets.
The semantics is same as TCP.

The last byte of a message with the OOB flag is
treated as the OOB byte. The byte is separated into
a skb and a pointer to the skb is stored in unix_sock.
The pointer is used to enforce OOB semantics.

Unix Domain Sockets

config UNIX tristate "Unix domain sockets" help If you say Y here, you will include support for Unix domain sockets; sockets are the standard Unix mechanism for establishing and accessing network connections. Many commonly used programs such as the X Window system and syslog use these sockets even if your machine is not connected to any network. Unless you are working on an embedded system or something similar, you therefore definitely want to say Y here.

  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
  called unix.  Note that several important services won't work
  correctly if you say M here and then neglect to load the module.

  Say Y unless you know what you are doing.
