[PATCH] resolv: Do not copy IPv4 addresses to IPv6 address array


While working on the resolver code, I discovered some address copying
which appears to be unnecessary.  The attached patch removes that.

The comments refer to timing data, but we currently do not have that.

Andreas, if I recall correctly, you wrote get_nsaddr.  What do you think
about this change?

Thanks,
Florian
resolv: Do not copy IPv4 addresses to IPv6 address array

get_nsaddr already prefers IPv4 addresses if they are present
(af_family != 0).  If we ensure that nssocks is initialized to -1
and sockets are closed even without an allocated server address,
there is no need to make these copies anymore.

	* resolv/bits/types/res_state.h (struct __res_state): Rename
	_u._ext.nscount to _u._ext.__glibc_unused_nscount.
	* resolv/res_init.c (res_vinit): Adjust.  Initialize nssocks
	member.
	* resolv/res_send.c (__libc_res_nsend): Do not copy IPv4
	nameserver addresses.
	* resolv/res-close.c (__res_iclose): Close sockets even if the
	name server address has not been allocated.
	* support/resolv_test.c (resolv_test_start): Do not clear
	_res._u._ext.nscount because it is unused.
