If we want to try and match the non-LSM PF_INET6 socket handling as
much as possible, after the length check (above) we should fail any
non AF_INET6 addresses on an INET6 sock, see __inet6_bind().

My guess is we want something like this:

  if (family == AF_INET6) {
    /* length check from inet6_bind_sk() */
    if (addrlen < SIN6_LEN_RFC2133)
      return -EINVAL;
    /* !AF_INET6 check from __inet6_bind() */
    goto err_af;
  }
