The kernel uses an IPv6 loopback address when registering its AF_INET6 RPC services so that it can tell whether the local portmapper is actually IPv6-enabled. Since the legacy portmapper doesn't listen on IPv6, however, this causes a long timeout on older systems if the kernel happens to try creating and registering an AF_INET6 RPC service. Originally I wanted to use a connected transport (either TCP or connected UDP) so that the upcall would fail immediately if the portmapper wasn't listening on IPv6, but we never agreed on what transport to use. In the end, it's of little consequence to the kernel whether the local portmapper is listening on IPv6. It's only important whether the portmapper supports rpcbind v4. And the kernel can't tell that at all if it is sending requests via IPv6 -- the portmapper will just ignore them. So, send both rpcbind v2 and v4 SET/UNSET requests via IPv4 loopback to maintain better backwards compatibility between new kernels and legacy user space, and prevent multi-second hangs in some cases when the kernel attempts to register RPC services.
