+Subject: [PATCH] kobj_uevent: Ignore if some listeners cannot handle message
+
+commit ebf4127cd677e9781b450e44dfaaa1cc595efcaa upstream.
+
+kobject_uevent() uses a multicast socket and should ignore
+if one of listeners cannot handle messages or nobody is
+listening at all.
+
+Easily reproducible when a process in system is cloned
+with CLONE_NEWNET flag.
