4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 2f2d0088eb93db5c649d2a5e34a3800a8a935fc5 upstream.
When a client has a USB device attached over IP, the vhci_hcd driver is locally leaking a socket pointer address via the
/sys/devices/platform/vhci_hcd/status file (world-readable) and in debug output when "usbip --debug port" is run.
Fix it to not leak. The socket pointer address is not used at the moment and it was made visible as a convenient way to find IP address from socket pointer address by looking up /proc/net/{tcp,tcp6}.
As this opens a security hole, the fix replaces socket pointer address with sockfd.

This backport is wrong; it's still printing the pointer...
