From: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 4c14d7043fede258957d7b01da0cad2d9fe3a205 upstream. Currently, the secondary channels of a multichannel session also get hostname populated based on the info in primary channel. However, this will end up with a wrong resolution of hostname to IP address during reconnect. This change fixes this by not populating hostname info for all secondary channels.
