[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 3/5] net: call socket_set_fast_reuse instead of setting SO_REUSEADDR

[Sebastian Ottlik <ottlik@fzi.de>]

SO_REUSEADDR should be avoided on Windows but is desired on other operating
systems. So instead of setting it we call socket_set_fast_reuse that will result
in the appropriate behaviour on all operating systems.

An exception to this rule are multicast sockets where it is sensible to have
multiple sockets listen on the same ip and port an we should set SO_REUSEADDR on
windows.
