Missing device binding relating to tcp_v4_send_reset?

[Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>]

This snippet is from some patches Patrick did for me some time
back.  I think the rest of his work has been merged upstream, but
this patch was not.  I'm honestly not sure if it's needed or not,
but we've been running with it for at least a year or so and it's
been working fine for us.
