Jeremy Kerr b416beb25d mctp: unify sockaddr_mctp types
Use the more precise __kernel_sa_family_t for smctp_family, to match
struct sockaddr.

Also, use an unsigned int for the network member; negative networks
don't make much sense. We're already using unsigned for mctp_dev and
mctp_skb_cb, but need to change mctp_sock to suit.

This is roughly based on the OpenBMC design document, at:
