net: port < inet_prot_sock(net) --> inet_port_requires_bind_service(net, port)
Note that the sysctl write accessor functions guarantee that: net->ipv4.sysctl_ip_prot_sock <= net->ipv4.ip_local_ports.range[0] invariant is maintained, and as such the max() in selinux hooks is actually spurious. ie. even though if (snum < max(inet_prot_sock(sock_net(sk)), low) || snum > high) { per logic is the same as if ((snum < inet_prot_sock(sock_net(sk)) && snum < low) || snum > high) { it is actually functionally equivalent to: if (snum < low || snum > high) { which is equivalent to: if (snum < inet_prot_sock(sock_net(sk)) || snum < low || snum > high) { even though the first clause is spurious. But we want to hold on to it in case we ever want to change what what inet_port_requires_bind_service() means (for example by changing it from a, by default, [0..1024) range to some sort of set).
