randconfig qa on x86.git ran into the following new networking related
problem on latest -git: with the attached .config the testbox comes up
but cannot establish any TCP connections due to -ENOPROTO in
sys_connect().
The error comes from this condition in inet_stream_connect():
/* Connection was closed by RST, timeout, ICMP error
* or another process disconnected us.
*/
if (sk->sk_state == TCP_CLOSE)
goto sock_error;
ICMP pings do work to the machine. Netfilter is on in the .config, maybe
some new option prevents TCP connections from being established?
CONFIG_SECURITY_NETWORK and CONFIG_SECURITY_SMACK is enabled as well.
(but that shouldnt throw a no-protocol error)
