In fact, my patch doesn't change the logic of the code, it just
eliminates the uesless call find_appropriate_src. Because the tuple
returned by find_appropriate is only useful when the
IP_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_RANDOM isn't set on. instead of testing the bit
IP_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_RANDOM after calling find_appropriate_src, I do
that before it to eliminate the cost of calling find_appropriate_src.
