I was able to come up with a patch that works in my environment by

Thanks for that. I vaguely remember making that change when creating the
v3.2 patch set, probably for no reason other than tidying up the code.
I'll have a closer look in the next couple of weeks, unless anyone else
does before then.
This is a bit of a strange error. Since the tos_t type is an 8-bit char.
Passing in a larger size than the object being passed means some garbage
off the stack will be passed to the setsockopt() internals.
