Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-7920:
-------------------------------------
And i would duplicate the null checks so that exception messages are still
good, e.g. IAE("InetAddress must not be null") vs IAE("addressBytes must not be
null"). It would just be an impl detail that one method calls the other one.

> {{InetAddress.getByAddress}} automatically transforms ipv6-mapped ipv4
> addresses to ipv4 addresses. While this is usually desirable, it can make ip
> prefix query a bit trappy. For instance the following code:
> {code}
> InetAddressPoint.newPrefixQuery("a", InetAddress.getByName("::ffff:0:0"), 96);
> {code}
> throws an IAE complaining that the prefix length is invalid: {{illegal
> prefixLength '96'. Must be 0-32 for IPv4 ranges, 0-128 for IPv6 ranges}}.
