[tipc-discussion] [PATCH] tipc: allow multicast address to be associated for RDM/DGRAM sockets

[<eri...@gm...>]

From: Erik Hugne <eri...@gm...>

Perform the address type validation after we check if it's a
connectionless socket, allowing TIPC_MULTICAST addresses to be
associated with RDM/DGRAM sockets.
