Yes I know, I thought I was the one that suggested it at some point
(I'll take the blame) ... although now that I'm looking at the git
log, maybe I'm confusing it with something else.

I believe these name_bind permission checkis skipped for AF_UNSPEC
already, isn't it?  The only way the name_bind check would be
triggered is if the source port, snum, was non-zero and I didn't think
that was really legal for AF_UNSPEC/INADDR_ANY, is it?
