Subject: SUNRPC: Handle EADDRNOTAVAIL on connection failures
From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 1f4c17a03ba7f430d63dba8c8e08ff1e2712581d upstream.
If the connect attempt immediately fails with an EADDRNOTAVAIL error, then
that means our choice of source port number was bad.
This error is expected when we set the SO_REUSEPORT socket option and we
have 2 sockets sharing the same source and destination address and port
combinations.
