cmsghdr_from_user_compat_to_kern() is an unusual case w.r.t. how
the kmsg->msg_control* fields are used. The input struct msghdr
holds a pointer to a user buffer, i.e. ksmg->msg_control_user is
active. However, upon success, a kernel pointer is stored in
kmsg->msg_control. kmsg->msg_control_is_user should therefore be
updated accordingly.
