From: Geliang Tang <tanggeliang@kylinos.cn>

Instead of using sock_kmalloc() to allocate an entry and then
immediately duplicate another entry to the newly allocated one,
sock_kmemdup() helper can be used to simplify the code.

More importantly, the code "*e = *entry;" that assigns "entry"
to "e" is not easy to implemented in BPF if we use the same code
to implement an append_new_local_addr() helper of a BFP path
manager. This patch avoids this type of memory assignment
operation.
