Title:
  libnl: fail to bind() netlink sockets

Status in libnl3 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in libnl3 source package in Trusty:
  New

Bug description:
  The following upstream patches are needed in order to avoid failures
  when binding a netlink socket:

  1f734a8f892a lib/socket: randomize the generated local port
  http://git.infradead.org/users/tgr/libnl.git/commitdiff/1f734a8f892a

  4dd5fdd0af2c lib/socket: retry generate local port in nl_connect on ADDRINUSE
  http://git.infradead.org/users/tgr/libnl.git/commitdiff/4dd5fdd0af2c

  027157898708 lib/socket: don't fail if no more local ports can be assigned in nl_socket_alloc
  http://git.infradead.org/users/tgr/libnl.git/commitdiff/027157898708

  0fd510b3673f lib/socket: use proper typed constant UINT32_MAX for uint32_t typed port
  http://git.infradead.org/users/tgr/libnl.git/commitdiff/0fd510b3673f

  Without these patches, an application which opens and closes regularly
  netlink sockets can easily fails to bind them.
