Subject: Re: [Patch] Fix commit 63d9950b08184e6531adceb65f64b429909cc101
 (ipv6: Make v4-mapped bindings consistent with IPv4)

Commit 63d9950b08184e6531adceb65f64b429909cc101
  (ipv6: Make v4-mapped bindings consistent with IPv4)
changes behavior of inet6_bind() for v4-mapped addresses so it should
behave the same way as inet_bind().

During this change setting of err to -EADDRNOTAVAIL got lost:

af_inet.c:469 inet_bind()
	err = -EADDRNOTAVAIL;
	if (!sysctl_ip_nonlocal_bind &&
	    !(inet->freebind || inet->transparent) &&
	    addr->sin_addr.s_addr != htonl(INADDR_ANY) &&
	    chk_addr_ret != RTN_LOCAL &&
	    chk_addr_ret != RTN_MULTICAST &&
	    chk_addr_ret != RTN_BROADCAST)
		goto out;


af_inet6.c:463 inet6_bind()
	if (addr_type == IPV6_ADDR_MAPPED) {
		int chk_addr_ret;

		/* Binding to v4-mapped address on a v6-only socket                         
		 * makes no sense                                                           
		 */
		if (np->ipv6only) {
			err = -EINVAL;
			goto out; 
		}

		/* Reproduce AF_INET checks to make the bindings consitant */               
		v4addr = addr->sin6_addr.s6_addr32[3];                                      
		chk_addr_ret = inet_addr_type(net, v4addr);                                 
		if (!sysctl_ip_nonlocal_bind &&                                             
		    !(inet->freebind || inet->transparent) &&                               
		    v4addr != htonl(INADDR_ANY) &&
		    chk_addr_ret != RTN_LOCAL &&                                            
		    chk_addr_ret != RTN_MULTICAST &&                                        
		    chk_addr_ret != RTN_BROADCAST)
			goto out;
	} else {
