In pseudocode...

switch(srcaddr->sa_family) {
AF_UNSPEC:
	if (rhs->sa_family == AF_UNSPEC)
		return true;
AF_INET:
	/* compare v4 address, return true if same */
AF_INET6:
	/* compare v6 address, return true if same */
default:
	/* fall through */
}
return false;

They should -- those are both macros around printk.

I'd make it a cFYI macro and fail the mount if the bind fails. They can
then crank up the debugging if they need to dig further.

Sounds like reason enough to fail to mount. If they don't really care
then they can remount without srcaddr=.
