Subject: disappearing listen()ed SO_REUSEPORT sockets across fork() when using epoll

Hello, when running the attached program on 3.12 child processes
are missing a socket fd opened, set with SO_REUSEPORT, listen()ed to,
and added to epoll_ctl().

This is the output I get when pointing "wget http://localhost:5555/"
at the attached program:

main PID 31591
PID 31634 started
PID 31634 accept()ed connection
PID 31635 started
PID 31636 started
PID 31635 accept() failed: Bad file descriptor
PID 31636 accept() failed: Bad file descriptor
PID 31634 accept()ed connection
PID 31634 accept()ed connection
PID 31634 accept()ed connection
PID 31634 accept()ed connection


While I would expect something like:

main PID 31591
PID 31634 started
PID 31634 accept()ed connection
PID 31635 started
PID 31636 started
PID 31635 accept()ed connection
PID 31636 accept()ed connection

-more new processes, but inversely proportional to number of listening processes
-accept() always returns successfully
