SCM_CREDENTIALS and SCM_SECURITY can be recv()ed by calling
scm_recv() or scm_recv_unix(), and SCM_PIDFD is only used by
scm_recv_unix().
scm_recv() is called from AF_NETLINK and AF_BLUETOOTH.
scm_recv_unix() is literally called from AF_UNIX.
Let's restrict SO_PASSCRED and SO_PASSSEC to such sockets and
SO_PASSPIDFD to AF_UNIX only.
Later, SOCK_PASS{CRED,PIDFD,SEC} will be moved to struct sock
and united with another field.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
