prot_hook.dev is not necessarily set if a packet socket is bound.
It may be bound to any device. See dev_add_pack and ptype_head.
prot_hook.type, on the other hand, must be set if bound and is only
modified with the bind_lock held too.
Well, and in packet_create. But setsockopt PACKET_FANOUT_ADD also
succeeds in case bind() was not called explicitly first to bind to
a specific device or change ptype.
