This will be hard to achieve with RDS being reconnect protocol
but since you have added a reset, the above no longer a
problem.

This seems to be unrelated change and left over from the
previous clean-up. Please do that in separate patch.

So value of 1 is allowed as well. There should be some
minimum default or multiple of it. Of course above check
can remain as is as long as you validate the user input
in handlers.

You need to unregister it on rds_tcp_listen_init() failure.

a next line will be good here.

As mentioned above, you should make sure the buffer lengths are
legitimate.
